What's the use of this? The Catholic church isn't opposed to evolution. Sophie Wilder  23:13, 17 April 2013 (UTC)


 * There are any number of reasons to criticize the Catholic Church, but opposition to evolution is not one of them.  VOX  HUMANA  23:42, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

"In his encyclical Humani Generis (1950), my predecessor Pius XII has already affirmed that there is no conflict between evolution and the doctrine of the faith regarding man and his vocation, provided that we do not lose sight of certain fixed points.... Today, more than a half-century after the appearance of that encyclical, some new findings lead us toward the recognition of evolution as more than a hypothesis. In fact it is remarkable that this theory has had progressively greater influence on the spirit of researchers, following a series of discoveries in different scholarly disciplines. The convergence in the results of these independent studies—which was neither planned nor sought—constitutes in itself a significant argument in favor of the theory. Pope John Paul II, Oct 22, 1996 - Message to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences on Evolution
