Oh for heaven's sake. I'm a Catholic through and through with 12 years of Catholic school under my belt. Evolutionary science co-existed quite easily with a loving God who rules over all of His creation.

Unless of course you're one of those who believes that Catholics aren't Christians, in which case go ahead and steep in your prejudicial juices.

The late scientist Carl Sagan would say you either believe in God or you believe in Darwin's Theory. You can not believe in both at the same time.

I'm refering to trying to believe in an omnipotent God who created the world in six days, and making him match up with a planet Earth that is, supposedly, five billion years old. That's not the God I learned about in Sunday School. (I'm Baptist, on a side note.)

LOL I was raised Southern Baptist and have NEVER EVER heard a preacher say a bad word about Catholics, or that evolution is wrong. I have found that just like my parents and their parents, I can follow Christianity and believe totally in science. My most favorite of all sciences, Archaeology, even gets regularly attacked by these people. If actual physical evidence from millenia ago that hasn't been touched since it was laid down get nothing but a "that's not true according to the bible", or "those fossils can only be a few thousand years old, according to the bible." then you have very little chance of swaying their opinions. Just be sure they NEVER get a say in our classrooms.
