Kudos to that guy.

You know what's ironic? The Catholic Church is now, despite it's many shortcomings, one of the most receptive to science and reasonable arguments. Those who originally left the Church because they hated it's fanaticism are now worse fundies than the Catholics

I hope, for their own sake, that they don't stop and reform the Church to 21st century standards. If we really must have some dominant Christian church, it's better them than the protestant heretics
