Nevertheless, from a strictly scientific perspective, the theory of evolution is in freefall

Not sure why you say that, given the findings of a multitude of observed experiments with lifespans that allow the viewing of hundreds of generations...but I don't want to attract that idiot "f.Christian" to this thread, so we'll save the Evolution discussion for another thread. Meanwhile, more and more evidence daily is found that continues to debunk the 7-day myth of Creationism and a 10,000-15,000 year old human race. I do agree with you re:"Scientific teaching has always been outside the competency of the church since the Church teaches infallibly only regarding faith and morals." To me, leave science to scientists and faith to theologians.

That may be true, but the development of the human race by "evolution" doesn't necessarily follow. I don't want to do the evolution/creation thing here either, but I'll just point you to Philip Johnson's book, "Darwin on Trial" and www.arn.org.
