Many Catholics adopt a “molecules to man” type belief in evolution which guesses that somewhere, a long time ago, a single cell organism sprung into existence and ever since then has been morphing into different creatures. At some point, these molecules came together to make “hominids” which eventually developed into kind-of human bodies but without souls. Then God kind of “zapped” two souls into two first parents, who we call “Adam and Eve.” I’m not saying that this is your (or Hobgoblin’s) exact belief, but enough Catholics seem to take this position. In any case, the only difference between this “Catholic” view of evolution and a secular atheist one is claiming that God “guided” the evolution and then “inserted” souls into two “first parents,” who although made in the image of God happened to basically have apes as their ancestors.
We say the Creed at every Mass, and within the Creed are several examples of divine supernatural actions - creating the world out of nothing, Jesus being born of the Virgin Mary, rising from the dead, that the Holy Spirit spoke through the prophets, etc. So we profess belief in several miracles, but for some reason many Catholics cannot accept the miracle of God directly creating our two first parents.
One would think that human beings, the ultimate manifestation of God in His living creatures, would be created direct and special - and in fact, God says He did it that way in Genesis, not to mention in several other passages of Scripture. Yet sadly (to me), many Catholics seem embarrassed by this belief and instead are more comfortable with the notion that we developed from apes.
I don’t think Tolle put much thought into that post. Seems a bit angry.
