If you look at the laws passed in the Italian Parliament in the last
5 years, you will find a few significant anti-transhumanism
laws passed, due to the influence of the Church.

Amara, how much real influence/raw power does the Roman Catholic Church have
on a global scale?  Can they still strongly sway American Catholics?
Non-Italian European Catholics?  Asian Catholics?  I would think in the
developed world as a whole their power to affect politics & science is quite
limited.  But in the third world (especially Latin America) they probably
still hold great sway.
