  • Anyway, the best account of evolving Eve came from an Opus Dei booklet written by a geneticist, I think.
    He said in that monkey's womb, the Adam fetus split into two, Eve thus came from Adam's body.
    But don't tell anybody.
    .
    Opus Dei booklet, seriously? ... The Freemasons hiding in the Church?
    So then does the "booklet" describe God having a conversation with a mature Adam who is yet still in the "monkey's womb" while Adam names all the animals on earth, then God causes Adam to fall asleep while still in the "monkey's womb" when He removes a rib from Adam, having Adam wait around inside the "monkey's womb" for like 17 more years while this "Eve" gradually matures inside the "monkey's womb" with Adam before both of them are born?  Or what?
    .
    Maybe St. Augustine would like the monkey's womb part, too, not to mention Struthio!  
    .
    If God's idea of entertainment is to give us a Bible that deliberately twists the truth into apparently something entirely different, then in the end nobody ever really knows what to believe because everything is up for grabs.
    .
    Either we can believe what the Bible says or we can't, and if it's the latter then were do we put our Faith, in rumors and gossip?

    You act like a stubborn protestant. You do not even deserve an answer, treating one of the most prominent Saints and Fathers of the Church as if he were a slob like the person you present here in your comments. St. Jerome said about St. Augustine:  "You are known throughout the world; Catholics honour and esteem you as the one who has established anew the ancient Faith".

    You should rather read, what St. Augustine wrote. See the second chapter of the sixth book of "The Literal Meaning of Genesis".

    Struthio, if you think you're going to impress someone by hurling your puerile epithets let me tell you, once FYI, all you're doing is making a bad name for yourself, and your type doesn't endure for long on CI.

    I found the online version of the article describing the recent Turkey International Conference:
    .
    https://www.thenewamerican.com/print-magazine/item/29183-international-scientific-conference-deems-evolution-a-hoax
    .
    It seems to me they would have had a much more relevant conference if they had not had so many participants who attempt to distinguish between a multi-billion year-old earth and the folly of evolution, because they are closely related.
