Vatican denounces creationism
Well, not exactly, but they reportedly released a press-release touting Darwin-esque evolution and denouncing "fundamentalist" creationism (i.e. intelligent design).
``In what many are calling a direct attack on the rising support for fundamentalist creationism in America, Cardinal Poupard, head of the Vatican Pontifical Council for Culture, stated that the Genesis description of God's creation of the universe and Darwin's theory of evolution are "perfectly compatible" if the bible is properly interpreted.''
``"The fundamentalists want to give a scientific meaning to words that had no scientific aim," he said, and that the point of Genesis is that "the universe didn't make itself and had a creator."''
