[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Catholic and of course understand evolution (I think "believe in" is a ridiculous way to frame understanding science and fact - something either is or isn't, I don't "believe in" the theory of cell division, for example).

Another Catholic. Completely accept evolution. The ridiculousness of ultra-conservative Christianity is one of the many reasons we left the Southern Baptist church 20 years ago. [/quote]

+1.  Lifelong Catholic here.  God has no sense of time as we on this particular planet know it (i.e. 24/7/365), so the Book of Genesis' use of 7 days to describe the time before time is clearly metaphorical or a best effort at describing creation.

I actually come down the other direction, looking at the amazing intricacy of all that is involved in the universe as it has evolved, how do you not believe in some form of God or Intelligenct Design.  It's too amazing to be nothing but random chance.  But that's another conversation ;-)[/quote]
