I am a practicing catholic and I have faith in the Word ( Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior ) Mark 10:6 But from the beginning of creation, 'God made them male and female.' 7* 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, * 8 and the two shall become one.' Jesus believed Adam and Eve were from the beginning. I am embarrassed by this video and of the catholic church teaching on this subject.

I am currently going thought the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) because I want to be baptized and receive the sacraments to become a full catholic. Mine is a 10 month process that teaches people who went to enter the church or just catholic who want to learn more all about the Catholic faith. I was very surprised when I learned that Catholics are not fundamentalist and they do not take the bible literally or as fact. It is alright to believe that God used evolution as his means to create the universe and humans. As a person who has studied evolution through my years of school I was very glad to hear this, because I believe in creation and evolution. Catholics believe that God is our creator, but no one can say how exactly he created everything. Great video!!!

It summarizes Catholic teaching and puts things into perspective. Helpful for those who are confused. I've used it with high school students. The comment calling Father Coyne a false prophet is either not a Catholic or a poorly informed one. Everything on the video is in accordance with Catholic teaching, while what the person who commented says is not. He seems to be influenced by fundamentalist preachers or writings. Thank you for having this video and others here. More please!! This video is excellent! It summarizes Catholic teaching and puts things into perspective. Helpful for those who are confused.

Sat, 13 Dec 2008 00:38:31 +0000 http://www.bustedhalo.com/?p=5341#comment-884 this priest is a false prophet. he is cursing in the video!!! he is obviously not a righteous man. he has been deceived! If you believe in evolution, answer this question. how did we get a soul if we just evolved from slime? The possibility that evolution exists is a 1 in 1 chance with 40,000 zeros behind it. that is like a tornado going through a junkyard full of airplane parts and forming a boeing 747 ready for service. Why don't you actually present the SCIENTIFIC research behind NOT believing in evolution. There is actual research and scientific proof that evolution does not exist. THAT would be an amazing video for people to see and so instead of constantly being presented with only ONE side of the science, they can be presented with the other side of the science and actually have a choice to come up with a decision. remember it is still a THEORY of evolution. it has not been proven correct or infallible. if God was a "his or her" then why would Jesus call him the Father? and say My Father in Heaven??? this priest is a false prophet. he is cursing in the video!!! he is obviously not a righteous man. he has been deceived!

if God was a “his or her” then why would Jesus call him the Father? and say My Father in Heaven???

As university student with a technical understanding of evolutionary theory, this really presents the "polarizing" issues of evolution and religious faith as they ought to be-- as related, but unopposed. I'm proud to be part of a Church that actively pursues knowledge. Great video.
