Francis explained that both scientific theories were not incompatible with the existence of a creator arguing instead that they require it.

Here I thought Vatican II was bad. This is worse I think.

did the Pope just say God can’t do everything?
Yes, facepalm is appropriate

The part about God not being able to do everything is the problem

Raising Lazarus, healing a withered hand, raising Jesus, the incarnation, all the miracles of the Bible.....all display His power to create and control the physical world.
What about the future? The new heaven and new earth? Our resurrection. Our new bodies? Will that require evolution?
If God is caged by evolution the whole Bible falls apart.
How can the Creator of nature’s laws be confined to them Himself? Are they more powerful than He?

God’s time is not the same as “human” time so I can see both co-existing.

conclusion - Francis is not a protestant. There’s nothing in these quotes that’s not orthodox or hasn’t been stated by Popes in the last 60 years.
That’s good. Hopefully he will see that science backs up scripture on the moral issues of our day.

I think it’s rather small-minded to think that He would require either a wand, or magic at all. If He is limited, who or what created those limits? Worship that.
Presumably he meant that the world was created with limitations and rules (i.e. the laws of nature), and the Bible does not contradict that. At least, I hope that’s what he meant.
