Here is a quote from your version of the translation:

A theory's validity depends on whether or not it can be verified, it is constantly tested against the facts; wherever it can no longer explain the latter, it shows its limitations and unsuitability. It must then be rethought.

The Pope recognizes evolution as a THEORY. A theory that must be proven. If it cannot be proven, it should be rethought. Countless times, evolution has been debunked and rebuked. Countless times, the perveyers of evolution have lied to further their cause. Is it time for some to start 'rethinking' the pseudo-sciences they so vehemantly support; pseudo-sciences/theories that dismantle the fabric of civilization -- theories that have led some to promote and support genocide. RE: Hitler/Mao/Lenin et al -- see link posted above.

Your first sentence is true. And only that sentence.

Aaargh! Are you so thick that you've learned nothing from these threads? Theories, in science, cannot be proven! They are simply frameworks to explain observations and evidence. The Pope understands this; you evidently do not.
