Is he in any way going against the Oath Against Modernism (which presumably he has taken)?

Only paragraphs 8-12.

This passage from Fr. Robinson is very difficult to read.  Every other sentence smacks of Modernism.  I wouldn't even know where to begin.

What are some of your thoughts on Pope Pius XII’s encyclical Humani generis?

Fr. Robinson hasn't been keeping up since his grade-school science classes.  In order to salvage the Big Bang theory, modern scientists have actually had to abandon uniformitarianism with regard to the progression after the BB.  They now claim that it went through various phases where the laws of physics were different, a hyperexpansion phase, etc.  And the alleged age of the universe was "calculated" based on reversing the current expansion rate of the universe, whereas it's obvious that it would have expanded much more rapidly in the beginning.

It's all garbage, and the Kolbe Institute does a terrific job of ripping it to shreds.

You mean the part on allowing the discussion of theistic evolution at least of the material body?  That was a horrible, tragic mistake -- along with many that Pius XII made that helped usher in the era of Vatican II apostasy.

He never taught theistic evolution, just said that it's OK to discuss the subject, provided that all the evidence pro- and con- be considered.  Nevertheless, his assertion that it's possible to discuss that the human body evolved (presumably from apes, etc.) is rejected by the universal consensus of the Church Fathers.  Sacred Scripture clearly teaches that God made the human body from the "clay of the earth".

Interestingly if you look at the chemical composition of earth and that of the human body, it's nearly identical.

Yes. Well said.
