Genesis (including both Ch1 and Ch2) are Divinely Inspired (not dictated; we aren't mohammedans). The Church has always taught this.

Yes, and the Church has always been wrong.

Why do so many Catholics/Orthodox think that Mohammed invented the idea of a book written by G-d Himself? Judaism taught this a thousand years before chr*stianity and sixteen hunred years before islam. From the very time of the Revelation pious and orthodox Jews have always believed that every word and every letter of the Torah (Genesis-Exodus-Leviticus-Numbers-Deuteronomy) was dictated directly from the Mouth of HaShem to Moses, who wrote it down. But of course the ancient churches (the first Protestants) rejected this ancient Tradition merely in order to replace it with a new one of their own making. And you wonder where Protestants ever got their notion of a Divine Tradition erring!!!

Your own words betray you. Your reference to Chapter One and Chapter Two of Genesis obviously is a reference to the "two creation accounts" accepted by liberal critical scholars. And you, a conservative Catholic who is supposedly arguing against position, actually invokes it! How typical.

That's not only incorrect, it's impossible.
