Unless I’m mistaken, unless the pope is speaking ex cathedra, even Catholics are not obligated to agree with the pope.

Yes, but any reasonable person should be obligated to agree that the Pope is a Christian and the leader of one of the single largest Christian organizations on Earth.

With all due respect, that's not the issue here. The issue is Darwinism, and how it has been an evil influence on our culture.

The pope can ONLY speak infallibly on matters of faith and morals, NOT science.

All any pope has ever said about evolution is that CERTAIN ASPECTS of it may be valid. It is without question that animals adapt to their native climates, it is necessary for them to avoid extinction. However, no pope has EVER suggested that humans "evolved" from any other animal. After all, why would they, all evolutionists can point to is some totally unidentifiable "missing link." Logic would dictate that if this "missing link" actually existed that archeologists would have stumbled upon it by now.
