It does not get much better than this: The Catholic church refutes "intelligent design."

Catholic Church refutes intelligent design as NOT SCIENCE

"The Rev. George Coyne, the Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, said placing intelligent design theory alongside that of evolution in school programs was "wrong" and was akin to mixing apples with oranges. 

"Intelligent design isn't science even though it pretends to be," the ANSA news agency quoted Coyne as saying on the sidelines of a conference in Florence. "If you want to teach it in schools, intelligent design should be taught when religion or cultural history is taught, not science."

***************
Score one for the Catholic Church. While it is safe to say that the Catholic leadership is, shall we say, not radical, they have embraced one very important concept. Ahem....

NOTHING SCIENCE CAN EVER OBSERVE OR PROVE CAN REFUTE THE EXISTENCE OF GOD.
