"It is silent on the detailed "how" of Adam's creation"
It is not silent, the scripture clearly says that man was created in God's image. Yom in this context doesn't mean anything, it is pointless to bring it up. God said He created man in His own image, Yom has nothing to do with that.
"I haven't avoided anything. I think Catholics are great -- I used be one, but I left"
You still seem to have some ill feelings buried, but I'm glad you do not hate them.
"As I said, your tag is an insult to Catholics and thinking Christians."
Here's a qoute for you:
"So whether the human body was specially created or developed, we are required to hold as a matter of Catholic faith that the human soul is specially created; it did not evolve, and it is not inherited from our parents, as our bodies are.
While the Church permits belief in either special creation or developmental creation on certain questions, it in no circumstances permits belief in atheistic evolution.
From http://www.catholic.com/library/Adam_Eve_and_Evolution.asp "
The Catholic church does not have an official stance either way, further proof of your phony words. Catholics cheer at my words as do Christians that are far smarter than you or I are. My tag line could only insult Catholics who believe the lie of Human Evolution, as I have proved above, many do not believe this lie and I applaud them for it.
I'm glad you said that you love Jesus, and it is my hope that one day you will see what a perverse lie Human Evolution is and realize the terrible harm it has caused to so many innocent children who were murdered because of this false religion.

Words have meaning. Created how? And Yom is an example of just how it pretty much impossible for anyone to say they interpret the Bible literally.

Something you do not comprehend is not a “lie.” It is just something you don’t understand. The Catholic Church in your quote specifically says one can be a Christian AND understand TToE. And many are and do. Your insult stands.

Which brings us back to Doe. Science is a tool. How it is wielded is where the evil lies. How you claim it caused children to be murdered is baffling. That tool has helped you if have taken advantage of any modern medical breakthrough, including prescription medicines (but also many medical procedures).
Covering your eyes doesn’t make the sun go away.
