Pope Francis: Evolution and the Big Bang are Real

"When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything.

[Mike Gendron Comment] Where is the outrage among Catholics? If there are any Catholics who believe the Bible is the supreme authority for truth they would recognize this pope is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He continues to deceive Catholics by suppressing the truth of God's word in unrighteousness. He continues to exchange the truth of God for a lie and exchange the glory of the immortal God for a wafer. He has become futile in his thinking and his foolish heart has been darkened. I pray the veil of blindness will be lifted from the hearts of Catholics as they turn to Christ and His Word for truth (2 Cor. 3:15-16)." Pro-Gospel.org
