Is it our place to try to understand the mind of God? Must we understand the mind of the great artist to understand the work of art?
Indeed. It’s human ego that demands answers and explanations for everything, even things that, ultimately, do not matter a whit in the grand scheme of things.

Needing answers, even if they are bad ones, assuages the ego and pride. Assenting to mystery, resigning to leave things unanswered, exercises humility and balance.
 
I do not believe this at all! Life did not come from the sea! Humans and Animals do not evolve! If the earth was closer or further away from the Sun we would freeze or burn! The Moon controls the tides. I can not believe this all happened by accident or a “Big Bang”!

Why is our moon the only Moon in our Solar System not to Rotate? We see the same side all the time? It happened before??? When??? This sounds like what a Atheist would say?
OF COURSE, life came from the sea. That is the first place we know it DID come from! You seem to have never learned how to connect the dots when it comes to Science and Faith. Science cannot conflict with the Truth of the Universe as God has created it.

Nobody is saying that everything happened by ‘accident’. But I also believe that God has more creative license than we give Him credit for. There is no reason to dismiss the notion that God ‘threw’ everything out there just to see what would happen, as an artist does. As an artist works through his paints on a board, or a musician works through sounds to produce music, or a sculptor fashions a statue or work from marble, stone, or other material, or a writer who creates good literature, why can’t God do the same with His Creation? Out of chaos come the rules, as the saying goes. Remember, however, that God is the intelligence behind everything, even though it may appear random.

By the way, be a little careful . . . the Moon does rotate. If you stood on the Moon, the stars would rise and set, just like they do on Earth, except that a lunar day is a month long, the same as the Moon’s orbital period. The Moon rotates at just the right speed so that it always keeps one face pointed toward the Earth. The moon is not unique in this. Almost all moons in the Solar System keep one face pointed toward their planet. The only exception we know of is Hyperion, a moon of Saturn.
 
I believe God made Adam and Eve; I am inclined to take the creation story of Genesis literally, unless God through the Church should reveal something contrary.

I say it is a rather immaterial issue because I once embraced the evolutionary theory as well as the literal creationist proposition, and in the end neither one changes the necessity of Christ, the truth of the Church, or the need for a return to a truly Catholic society.

My faith isn’t so weak as to be influenced by lesser things as the origin of life.
I agree, that’s the bottom line, faith
 
The day that some members of the church accepted the humanistic perspective of the Origen of our universe, men placed their unfruitful understanding before God’s revelation. No surprice to see that schools are teaching that God does not exist, that is the result of churchs that teach that God used a Big Bang And created us from slim and not from Afam And Eve according to the Bible. May God have mercy upon men for men has no mercy with His word.
