If you can name one use in applied science for the theory that all life on earth evolved from a microbe, then, Congratulations! - you are the only person on the planet who can.

Sceince is very overrated - when it comes to the “how” of the works of God, science is useless.Right. The Church speaks about the soul and it’s origin in God, and the origin of all creation in God. The Church does not seek to add missing pieces of scientific information.
The Church speaks about the why ad the who, not the scientific how.

I love it! The atheist-ridden scientific community will be doing its best to dismiss this stuff as erroneous. Science supporting the Bible? That will not be tolerated!

Sadly, you are a yet another victim of the greatest hoax in the history of mankind.Evolution is a real thing, a well established scientific process. That’s a reality.

What you say is not true. The Hebrew people didn’t even take Genesis as a work of literal science.

Everywhere is the centre of the universe because the human spirit is organised that way, a self-other existing as a moment with a past and future. So we imagine ourselves anywhere and in any time, along the trajectory that is the totality of the cosmos that includes us. We, as relational beings, are the frames of reference, through which it can be said that the universe (creation) comes to know itself. The capacity to know brings knower and known together in the unified experience of existence. At the same time none if this is at the true Centre, which is God, from whom all time and space spring forth and whose knowledge of His creation grants us the capacity to know.

There are many fields of applied science which contribute to supporting the theory of evolution, radiocarbon dating comes to mind. I don’t quite understand what your position is with respect to Creation. A literal interpretation? If so, were all animals created at the same time? Despite the fossil record and scientific methods which show variation through time?

One cannot cry poor design unless they ask the designer the purpose of the design.

Actually, St Augustine wrote about prime matter.

Ah, the “basic types”. Whatever those might be, other than ID folklore.

Yes, we see 500 or so conserved core genes, present at the beginning. These 500 building blocks have the instructions for the variation we see.

20 God said, ‘Let the waters be alive with a swarm of living creatures, and let birds wing their way above the earth across the vault of heaven.’ And so it was.
21 God created great sea-monsters and all the creatures that glide and teem in the waters in their own species, and winged birds in their own species. God saw that it was good.
22 God blessed them, saying, ‘Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the waters of the seas; and let the birds multiply on land.’
23 Evening came and morning came: the fifth day.
24 God said, ‘Let the earth produce every kind of living creature in its own species: cattle, creeping things and wild animals of all kinds.’ And so it was.
25 God made wild animals in their own species, and cattle in theirs, and every creature that crawls along the earth in its own species. God saw that it was good.
26 God said, ‘Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.’

That is what the data shows. Natural Selection is a conservative process not a creative one. It acts to preserve what the life form started as. It allows enough adaptation to deal with environmental pressures. As we see with Darwin’s finches their beaks returned to their former shape. It is rather brilliant and needs oodles of information to work.
This is shown well with living fossils thought long extinct.
In addition, convergent evolution is shown in the data. How many times must an eye evolve for someone to say - that is not chance it was designed. Card players immediately cry foul when they see repeat patterns that chance cannot explain.

If you like literal, try this on for size:
There is literally no one in the leadership of the Catholic Church that believes evolution is a hoax. I know of no serious Catholic scholars that believe evolution is a hoax.
You might want to consider that you are setting yourself against the Church’s view of nature. As expressed by saints like St John Paul 2. Why would you set yourself against the Catholic Church? That would give me cause to look in the mirror and examine my motivations.
It’s a sad thing when atheists on this board might have more coherent views of Catholic thought than some who profess to be Catholic. That is a tragedy.

You absolutely and definitively have no idea what you are talking about. I happen to be a geologist.
You don’t know what you are talking about.
You’re scandalizing people who come here looking for good information. Scandal is a sin.
