Otherwise your thread would have 5.297 responses from the Catholic apologists, pseudo-intellectuals, and general shit-stirrers telling us all how WRONG!1! this article is.

We'd be hearing that the Catholic Church invented science and civil rights. And it just LOVES women. How 'bout all those nuns, huh? Checkmate, atheists!

Thanks for posting. Unlike many similar articles I've read, that one doesn't equivocate or mince any words.
