Reply #28: Hey, look what religion did for Europe in the Middle Ages

I for one am still upset that the sun does not revolve around the earth (as the bible implies) and wish that the church had held its ground and tortured or murdered all "scientists" who were "trying to prove the bible wrong".

Life would be so much simpler now if only the church had not relented and had stayed strong in the face of the attacks on the bible from all these evil scientists.

Of course, George Bush* is trying very hard to turn the clock back to the good ole days of yore....Dark Ages!! YES. Heresy can be met with torture and imprisonment!! We can use TAXES to fund the churches and no longer have to rely on tithes.

Yes indeedy, the good ole days are returning and you can thank Mr. Boosh for that.
