God hates liars. I'd call that at odds with evolution and evolutionist.
Where is the current Pope on evolution?
Is he in agreement with God?
Or not?
FC: God hates liars. I'd call that at odds with evolution and evolutionist.
Evolution as defined is not anti-religious. It, like all sciences seeks to help man understand God's creation. When taken to extremes (like saying life evolved of it's own), then it becomes wrong. Physics and Chemistry aren't against the Bible, they only make us learn more about the awesomeness of God. I see that you don't really know about or have read anything about evolution, but are just spouting the Media's incorrect version.
Where is the current Pope on evolution?
The Popes have and always will state that God created everything.
How God created it to the minute detail is something else.
Is Genesis a way of simple ancient man trying to understand the enormity of God? Would a man in 2000 B.C. (like Abraham) understand when you spoke about germs, about bacteria and viruses? Would he understand the concept of millenia? I doubt it. God, in His wisdom explained things in simple ways to man: "I (God) created the sun, the moon, the earth and everything on it" and in a nutshell that IS what he did. Was man created from Dust (from earth, from the elements on earth)? YES. What were the details involved in this fantastic creation? I dunno, God may explain it to you and me, but we aren't smart enough to understand. Even less sophisticated were people in 2000 B.C. You see Genesis says that God put up two lights -- the Sun and the Moon. Try explaining to a 5 year old. Which is more easier for the 5 year old to understand -- that there is a gigantic ball of gas and energy that's undergoing nuclear fission and fusion (oh, you'd have to explain those two terms as well -- atoms splitting, electrons being exchanged, neutrons separating etc, then why the energy comes from bosons to quarks etc. then the string theory) and this gigantic ball is millions of miles away from us and sends light and heat, while the Moon is just a big rock that reflects the Sun's light. Or would it be simpler to just say the simplest that these two give light to the earth.
BOTH the long and the Short tell you that God created these two lights. It's only when explaining it to the audience that we get stumped. We will never understand the fullness of God's work, we can only seek to learn more about His works.
Is he in agreement with God?
Yes.
