The past several popes have talked about it as a perfectly acceptable scientific explanation for how we got the world we live in today. I learned about evolution in my Catholic school. The man who first introduced the idea of the Big Bang Theory was a Catholic priest, and the pope of the time was super excited about it. Yep, no problem here!I wish every other theist reached the same conclusion, but that is not the case. The Big Bang has nothing to do with biological evolution. That is called the cosmic evolution.
Oh, I didn't realize you were talking about biological evolution specifically. I just assumed you were talking about evolution in general. There is no issue with any type of evolution.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
