I think this is a very good question that needs to be answered, especially in 
the Indian and Goan context.

Fr. Ivo writes under point No: 4: 

It is Christianity, not Science, that has empowered women, wherever society
was enslaving them, including in India. It was a gradual process.
Christianity (for that matter also other religions, to some or major extent)
has enlightened the Barbarian hordes and has given us today a place where we
can live in a human, rational way, where Science can evolve freely,
responsibly and ethically.

My response to Fr. Ivo: 

Has anyone in Goanet challenged such absurd statements?  For clearly Fr
Ivo's thinking logic, practicing and propagating is questionable? 

Can Fr. Ivo explain who exactly are the Barbarian hordes?

Fr. Ivo will you still prefer to keep this question unanswered like earlier
question!!!
