"Besides, does the Catholic Church really teach that man evolved from some ape like ancestor, instead of being created in the image of God from the dust of the earth, as the Bible teaches?"

The Church teaches that man was created in God's image and that that is not incompatible with evolution or science.

I find it strange that you quote Dr. Schroeder when it suits you, but as an Orthodox Jew he rejects the most important part of the bible, that Jesus was the Messiah and the Son of God. Aren't you the least bit embarrassed by this lapse in the continuity of your intellectual honesty?

Don't expect anymore acceptance and consideration of your beliefs than you show to others whose beliefs do not exactly match with yours.

Of course I realize he’s Jewish.

That’s what enabled him to deal with the Hebrew in Genesis so well.

How is his rejection of Jesus as the Messiah relevant to his ability to interpret Genesis?
