Yes because the pope is less well informed than you are?
I most certainly didn't say that. The pope is a world class intellectual.
id go with the pope over you on this one every time.
You would certainly be safe in doing so. I certainly don't think that the opinion of the pope should be discounted, and there is no moral danger in following his opinion.
I simply disagree with him in this particular case (I do, however, admit that I am more likely to be in error than he is, of course). :idunno:
