Pope Pius XII introduced the phrase and concept of the acceptability of belief that humans came from “pre existing and living matter”, Pope John Paul expounded upon this by saying ....

“The convergence, neither sought nor provoked, of results of studies undertaken independently from each other in itself constitutes a significant argument in favor of the theory [of evolution].”

“if the origin of the human body is sought in living matter which existed before it, the spiritual soul is directly created by God”

Do you really not know?!?!!?

You have been here for years arguing this and you are THIS blissfully unaware?

It takes all kinds I suppose.

Your claim was that the pope "accepts the scientific theory of evolution - that man descended from non human living forms." NONE of these quotes demonstrate this, there are a lot of "ifs" and statements that it's "acceptable" to believe it under certain conditions, but there is NOTHING that indicates that they believe that man descended from non-human living forms.

I've been arguing WHAT for years?

I systematically AVOID evolution threads, I can't remember the the last time I posted one if I ever have.
