Evolution occurred at the hand of God. Starting billions of years ago.
Flame away.
Why not?
It’s God. He can do whatever He wants however He wants. That’s what’s important. Recognizing the hand of the Creator. How He created everything? Well that’s just a fun study for humanity.
I concur.
God chooses to use the natural processes HE CREATED to run and regulate His world mostly (Once in a while He bypasses this in what we call a miracle ). He gave us intelligence to understand these processes.
Evolution is an attempt to understand these processes. We have a crude understanding of it at this time. There is much we don’t understand.
That’s how I interpret Genesis.
Got created the universe, he created this world, he created all life on this world. Evolutionary origins mythology is a very clever weaving of science, speculation, and wishful thinking by people who, like the builders of the Tower of Babel, wish to prove that God is unnecessary.
People who understand how hard forensic science is even when dealing with the just-completed past have a better grasp of the house of cards that is evolutionary history.
The Catholic Church’s attempts to remain relevant by cozying up to evolution will look bad when we realize that the evolutionary mythology of our being is no more scientifically accurate than global warming or the normality of homosexuality.
