Vatican: Faithful Should Listen to Science

A Vatican cardinal said Thursday the faithful should listen to what secular modern science has to offer, warning that religion risks turning into "fundamentalism" if it ignores scientific reason."

I doubt the Fundies care--I hope the Catholics don't want to be perceived as "Provincial," shall we say.

I expect this to all start mattering when someone in the Senate--could be a Dem, could be a Repub--asks the current SCOTUS candidate what he will do if the pope tells the justices that they'll be excommunicated if they allow Roe v Wade to stand. With five Catholics on the court, that could get interesting in a hurry.
