Science is blind to God and the supernatural. God created the universe in 6 days 6000 years ago and science will never know that.

What makes you the arbiter of the supernatural? Some 18th century bishop does ‘the math’ based on a book that was written on parchment by Bronze Age sandal wearing sheep herders, is not the key to the supernatural.

In an encyclical in 1950 entitled Humani Generis, Pope Pius XII stated the Catholic position on evolution: a Catholic is free to accept any scientific theory about human origins provided it is acknowledged that, at some stage, God infused an immortal soul into the human body. This requires an act of faith, but not a denial of science, because science has nothing to say about gods and souls.
