Fr Paul Robinson, as we see, wrote a book The Realist Guide to Religion and Science.

Now I have read his book that tries to make 'modern science' Catholic, in and out between endless pages of typical philosophical waffle so that after reading some of it the reader does not know what is going on. If any problem arises with his Big Bang 18.5 billion years of evolution, he suggests that only God could have made that happen and therefore no atheist has a leg to stand on.

For a superbly substantial and thoroughly researched and docuмented critique of Fr. Robinson's book see Dr. Robert Sungenis' 575 page masterpiece, Scientific Heresies and their Effect on the Church: A Critical Analysis of "The Realist Guide to Science and Religion." It can be found at https://www.theprinciplemovie.com/new...

On pp 1-2 of Robert Sungenis' new 564 page book Scientific Heresies and Their Effect on the Church -- A Critical Analysis of: "The Realist Guide to "Religion and Sicence" we find this remarkable passage: "A good friend of mine who is a priest in the SSPX confided the following to me: 'Let me just note that being in the SSPX for over 35 years now, there have always been priests who did not accept 6-day Creation, and who would not even have considered geocentrism as an option , and who were open to certain forms of evolution. The SSPX has always been a mix of ideas of everything that was still considered orthodox in the 1960s. Those in authority have feared to accept new creationist and geocentric proofs which have come forth since the 60's, and have willed to keep a 60's - 70's mentality, despite new proofs, or have not been willing to consider as serious science anything which has come forth from geocentric or creationist arguments. I know, however, several priests open to geocentrism, etc., in the SSPX. You will also note that Father Robinson's book [The Realist Guide to "Religion and Sicence] was curiously published by Gracewing Publishers and not an SSPX publisher such as the Angelus Press. Perhaps Father Robinson wanted a wider readership, at the same time Angelus Press might have realized that such a book would rock the boat among SSPX faithful."

In all seriousness, can anyone think of a worse (and more dangerous and more scandalous) book that has ever been officially sold by the SSPX in their entire history than The Realist Guide to Religion and Science by Fr. Paul Robinson, SSPX? Surely, this is one of the greatest testaments to how far astray the leadership in the SSPX has gone. They need to be made aware in the strongest of terms that the book is outright modernism, plain and simple.

Old Earth Creationism is just dodging the main question I have for most who are suspect of Modernism. How long have human beings been in existence? Fr. Robinson probably simply holds that the Big Bang was touched off by God and labels that OEC.

Well said. That is precisely what Fr. Robinson holds.

I did some additional reading, and indeed that's what he holds. I will not dignify that belief with the term "creationism". It's more of a Freemasonic Deist concept.

This is an excellent criticism of Fr. Robinson:

One of the most disturbing things I read was this quote from Fr. Robinson:

Quote

Anyone who starts such a project knows that they have to have a strong motivation to do so. In my case, I wanted to set the record straight on the Church’s teaching on science in relation to the Bible. I could see that what I was taught as a seminarian and what I was teaching as a seminary professor somehow was not being passed on to the faithful.

More and more we see the neo-SSPX showing their true colors.

I can assure you that if I were the rector of a Traditional Catholic seminary, Fr. Robinson would never have made it to clerical tonsure, much less priestly ordination.

And now he's getting the good word out to the next generation of Traditional Catholics (and probably the last, the way things are going):
