According to the director of the [[Vatican]] observatory, Father George V. Coyne, a Catholic and a theistic scientist, the theory of [[intelligent design]] belittles the power of God to nurture a creation over a long period of time carefully groomed and watched by God continuously.  Coyne agrees with John Paul's statement that evolution is a "fundamental church teaching" and should be treated as such.  The view of Coyne in rejecting intelligent design is not universal in Catholicism.  For instance, the Cardinal archbishop of Vienna has spoken out in support of intelligent design.  The Vatican itself has never taken an official position on the issue.<ref>http://www.catholic.org/national/national_story.php?id=18503</ref>
