Lo. Not low. Lo.

And exactly when did the Easter Bunny become a part of Catholic theology or doctrine? And exactly what makes you think flippancy is anything but a sign of a bad attitude?

Why would the Israelites had such a hard time believeing evolution? I know people who are literally two steps above ‘special’ that believe in evolution. It doesn’t require any special knowledge to understand the basic idea of evolution, hence our ability to teach it to small children.
This fallacy that the “idiotic” tribesmen of Israel could not have understood evolution, or that teaching them the basic idea requires also teaching them advanced Chemistry and Biology is one if the most silly things I’ve ever heard. 99.9% of the people who believe in evolution know about as much biology and chemistry as the average 2nd Millennium BC tribesmen.

According to evolutionists, it is only stupid people who don’t accept their fairy tale. This is the elitist mentality one finds in any cult. Evolution is a cult. Many Catholics are members of this cult - including many bishops.
It nevers ceases to amaze me how many folks accept evolution but hardly know a thing about it. Brainwashed lemmings.

You need to add all the other sciences too: Cosmology, astrophysics, geology, natural history… Don’t sell yourself short!
 
I feel sad too - for the Catholics, big and small, who have been duped by the devil into believing that the lie of evolution can be reconciled with Scripture.

Welcome to the Great Apostasy. Don’t say no one tried to warn you.

God created and sustains His creation. That includes science and evolution
 
God used science to create the universe out of nothing?

God created Science, read Job.

God created the science of light, of water, of biological systems, of geology, of gravity and space, of the air you are breathing right now, of decomposition,
 
Which science says a virgin birth is possible? Or that a man can walk on water? Or that bread and wine can become the body and blood of Christ? Or that a dead man can be resurrected? There is not a shred of scientific evidence that any of these things are even remotely possible.

Are you saying science trumps Scripture?

Miracles are not explainable by science. The Church takes a position on various miracles - that they are indeed miracles. The age of the earth is not one of those however. It is simply your decision to decide the appropriate interpretation of Scripture and thus the position the Church should take on a matter such as the age of the earth. Are you saying that your judgements trump those of Christ’s Church - I believe you are!
 
Most evolutionary scientists - and the scientists in other fields who accept evolution - are atheists who would rather lose a limb than think in terms of anything other than a godless explanation of origins. And you trust these biased myth-makers to deliver objective truth? How naive are you?

You will need to cease the personal attacks or you will be reported.

It is only your assertion that a 15bill year old universe and the science of evolution demands atheism and a belief in myths. You are at odds with Christ’s church on this.
 
Am i a YEC? I believe the earth and the universe could be billions of years old.

Why admit that the universe could be billions of years old ? Isn’t that a part of the Atheist agenda? To deceive us with science?

If you are going to accept the possibility of an old universe and admit that this does not conflict with Christianity then why not accept evolution?

The science of God realised the Virgin Birth, the Immaculate Conception, the Resurrection of our Saviour Jesus. The science of God will resurrect our bodies on judgement day.

The science of God consecrates and changes bread and water into Body Blood Soul and Divinity of Jesus , through the hands of His Priests.

There isn a shred of evidence that God did not or cannot create these miracles.

God can do anything because God said ‘I AM’

Broad generalisation there. How many scientists do you know personally? What’s your explanation for the Pontifical Science Academy, and that Pope Francis, our Holy Father is a scientist.
 
I have already stated that I accept that the earth could be billions of years old.

You probably are OK with the estimated ages of most Egyptian mummies too (all are less than 5000 years old). But presumably you must instantly reject those mummies which are older than 5778 years (eg. Chinchorro mummies)? All of a sudden, the dating techniques produce spurious results.

Because I believe that an old earth is compatible with Scripture but evolution is incompatible with Scripture.
