Maybe part of the intelligent design is evolution. Good plan, let us adapt to our changing environment. Smart guy, that designer.

He said the real message in Genesis was that "the universe didn't make itself and had a creator".

His statements were interpreted in Italy as a rejection of the "intelligent design" view

I understand what they are trying to say, but they say it mighty poorly.

Evolution is in stark contrast with the belief in God.

You either believe that God created the heavens and the earth, or you believe you evolved from monkeys and the universe just EXPLODED and came together to form that wonderful galaxy out there, planets aligned so neatly, everything in order. That indicates there was a creator, how can one look around and see such beauty and not realize that some higher power put it there?

Well that makes two of us who will adapt to Global Warming. In fact, since I'm in NH, I say bring it on.

Evolution is in compliance with what the Bible states (not the other way around).

Who among us can state what a DAY is to GOD.

Are you that presumptuous?

God created the world. What we know as evolution is our understanding of the method He used. Pretty simple stuff, really.

You are showing your ignorance. The Creation scriptures define a day as "evening and morning". The creation story is referred to in several subsequent passages as occurring in "six day". The Catholic church just caved into liberalism.

I think you should read the actual statement and not he one paragraph summary before saying that.

Ask a geologist. That we are here now is impossible. Ask a physicist. Thank God for our molten core and our moon. How is it that all the civilizations around the world learned to write at about the same time, only a few generations ago. And domesticated animals, only historically recently. Examine the time line of creation, allowing for the many discontinuities in the sedimentary record, and see that mankind has been an almost instantaneous occurance in the 59th minute of the 23rd hour. Of course science and the Word is consistent.
