(My church, the RC Church has no problem with God working through evolution)
Again, possibility is proof of nothing.
The fact that something COULD be true does not mean that it IS true, and science is a set of disciplines specifically intended to CONDEMN getting carried away by mere possibility.
The Catholic Church has never endorsed or supported any aspect of the hypothesis of evolution in any way, but simply says they don't want to fight about it.
The Catholic Church's approach has been: 2 Timothy 2:23-25
23 But refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. 24 The Lords bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, 25 with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth,
I believe that approach is foolish and a mistake, for it does great damage to the Christian faith, and the Catholic Church is very wrong.

Where God made his move to create is unknown. Perhaps science will one day find the connection, perhaps not, but God wanted us to learn all we can about his domain.
But evolution is a fact and the universe as we can view it is 14.5 billion years old. There are false sciences out there. No need to lump real science in with the false ones.
