Pope Francis: Evolution and the Big Bang are Real
Response to comment [from a Christian]: "...He seems to genuinely believe what he is saying, and what he is saying is a breath of fresh air..."
You'll believe
God or you won't (Ge 1:1).
[Pope Affirms Big Bang Theory
Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries]
"Pope Francis reaffirmed long-held
Catholic beliefs that evolution is
not "inconsistent" with Creation.
"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.
But that is not so," he told those
gathered for a discussion on
Evolving Concepts of Nature. He
said, "The
Big Bang, which today we hold to be
the origin of the world,
does not contradict the intervention
of the divine creator but, rather,
requires it."
In a related story, an influential
Catholic astronomer, who works at
the Holy See, said the literal
interpretation of the Genesis
creation account is "almost
blasphemous theology."

[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
