The Czech Republic has universal literacy, an amazingly low infant
mortality rates, and one of the highest standards of living in Europe.
Infant mortality rate: 3.86 deaths/1,000 live births
Life expectancy: 76.42 years
GDP per capita: $24,400 (2007 est.)
Unemployment: 6.6% (2007 est.)
Compare this with Poland, which followed the RCC's morality first
policy.
Infant mortality rate: 7.07 deaths/1,000 live births
Life expectancy: 75.19 years
GDP per capita: $16,200 (2007 est.)
Unemployment: 12.8% (2007 est.)
Which country appears to be doing better, the one that used logic and
built a strong economy, or the one that kissed Rome's ass?

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the
source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a
stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as
good as dead: his eyes are closed." - Albert Einstein
