From ELISABETTA POVOLEDO and LAURIE GOODSTEIN in the Times:
The Vatican issued the most authoritative and sweeping document on bioethical issues in 20 years on Friday, taking into account recent developments in biomedical technology and reinforcing the church’s opposition to in vitro fertilization, human cloning, genetic testing on embryos before implantation and embryonic stem cell research.I realize the Vatican's feeling towards sodomy, but in the face of what science can offer the world, the Vatican's profound ignorance and foolishness offends me.
So here are other instructions: Stick your suggestions up your collective ass.
Your child molester-protecting outfit is out of its league when talk of ethics arises. How about the Vatican issues a disclaimer on the bottom of every official document for the next 50 years apologising for its collective sin?
I’m certainly not a Catholic but I do have a problem with its anti-intellectualism, its miscygony, its occasional anti-Semitism, I could go on; on balance the Catholic Church is a profoundly negative entity affecting the world and the US.
