Re: Intelligent Design winning over Catholic Church
The priest doing the homily yesterday mentioned that "intelligent design is especially interesting to Catholics" after complaining that many people who "believe in evolution do so almost as a religion." Luckily the pastor of the church is considerably more liberal than this fellow, so we shouldn't hear more of that.
However, the impression I get is that this priest was endorsing a definition of ID as
theistic evolution + anthropic principle = intelligent design,
rather than the nonsense spouted by the Discovery Institute and the Wedge. At least, I hope so.
