Sure. Me and the Pope and the majority of the rest of the world MUST think we are “wiser than God” for not accepting YOUR interpretation of what Genesis means.

The pontiff, speaking as he was concluding his holiday in northern Italy, also said that while there is much scientific proof to support evolution, the theory could not exclude a role by God.

“They are presented as alternatives that exclude each other,” the pope said. “This clash is an absurdity because on one hand there is much scientific proof in favor of evolution, which appears as a reality that we must see and which enriches our understanding of life and being as such.”

The pope’s no more infallible than the next sinner.

He can compromise Genesis if he wants to, and then wonder why no one takes the rest of the Bible as authoritative, and “just a bunch of stories”.
