            I am not a member of 
              the Catholic church and would die rather than join an institution 
              with such a bloody history and flagrant disregard and suppression 
              of biblical teachings. I am a Bible believing christian and over 
              200,000,000 of my kind have been burned at the stake or tortured 
              to death in some manner, labeled as heretics, by the Catholic church, 
              according to their own records. Nowhere in the Bible is anyone instructed 
              to kill heretics. They are to be tolerated in the church as they 
              provide an opportunities for debates which tend to bring out both 
              sides of an issue.
            I reject any church which 
              uses God's name to justify killing innocent people or to oppress 
              the weak. My point mainly was that the theory of evolution has caused 
              a wave of killing UNPRECEDENTED in known history. Evolution is theory 
              that encourages the strong to trample the weak, that is amoung it's 
              core teachings.
            Sincerely, Brady Hess
