  • Does anyone know a good book which refutes the errors of the "evolution of species" and most precisely the delusional "evolution of man from monkeys" and the prehistorian cave dwellers?

    I don't know of such a book, but here is a snip of something from Fr. Wathen I came across the other day and thought it might be of interest as regards the stupidity of evolution....

    "...The following are attributes of God' s creativity: It is abundant and it is various; the Divine Artist loves to make things; and it is His pleasure to make more than enough. We should observe that the good God has made many, many things which apparently have no usefulness, so that we must conclude that the He made them for the sheer delight of making. No one can otherwise explain the wild, superabundance of the flora and the fauna of the earth, nor the great number of heavenly bodies, most of which are nothing but huge rocks whirling through space, catching the light of distant stars, which men consider themselves clever to find and count and catalog.

    Besides number, there is a most captivating variety, and, in some animate things, a capacity for endless further variation within the species. Furthermore, amidst this variety, it is to be observed that there is an observable gradation, from things of a very simple composition to things more wonderfully complex, from small to large, from inanimate to intelligent, from physical to spiritual. Evolutionists see in this gradation evidence that the "higher forms" of life developed from the "lower forms." What they ought to see is not that one thing evolved from another, but that all things came from the same Maker, who, like human artists, inclines to repeat and re-apply and develop the same ideas in one thing and another....

    ...All this is said to remind the reader that thinking of men in terms of superior and inferior is misguided, even though it is
    indubitable that in their variety, human beings are unevenly endowed both physically, spiritually, and supernaturally. In all this, the key word is not inequality, but complementariness..."
    "But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men." - Acts 5:29

    The Highest Principle in the Church: "We are first of all under obedience to God, and only then under obedience to man" - Fr. Hesse

    Exorcising the Filth of Evolution
    by admin


    Exorcising the Filth of Evolution
     
    We wish to state without qualification that it is in no way possible to believe in the truth of God’s Revelation while at the same time believing that man, in any way – either body or soul, is the result of an evolutionary process. This truth is established upon what is contained in both written Revelation and the Church’s infallible Magisterium.
    From the perspective of Biblical Revelation, we have explored this subject in our article Receiving the Kingdom of God as a Little ChildIt is impossible to consistently believe (in a non-contradictory way) in the infallibility of God’s Word in the Old Testament, and especially in the Book of Genesis, while believing in any sort of human evolution. In order for the reader to be convinced of this fact, we believe that this article deserves very careful study
    From the perspective of the Church’s infallible Magisterium, we possess the doctrine taught by the Council of Vienne: "whoever shall hereafter dare to assert, maintain, or pertinaciously hold that the rational or intellectual soul is not per se and essentially the form of the human body, is to be regarded as a heretic". As pointed out by Ludwig Ott in his Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma, this dogma is de Fide (of the Faith) and therefore a truth of Revelation necessary to be believed by all Catholics, either explicitly or implicitly, for the retention of Catholic Faith. A human being is one essence, resulting from the substantial union of soul and body. Since the soul constitutes per se (in itself) the form of the human body, the human body cannot be said to exist previous to its reception of a human soul. To assert that any kind of body can exist without its specific form is nonsense. To believe therefore, as do many so-called “Theistic Evolutionists”, that God used an evolutionary process to first form an appropriate human body for the reception of a human soul is an impossibility. We repeat: the soul is in itself the form of a human body.
    And if we should try to assert that God actually took a non-human, ape-like body (already possessing an animal “soul”), and somehow substituted a human soul for the existing animal soul, we are asserting the kind of stuff that makes for slapstick comedy. We might well imagine a newspaper cartoon depicting a Michelangelo-like depiction of God sticking a large hypodermic needle labeled “human soul” into the rear-end of an ape, while at the same time using a rather large foot to kick out an “ape-soul”.  It is no wonder, therefore, that someone like Joseph Ratzinger dismissed any such comedic attempts at reconciling human evolution with Catholic doctrine to be “intolerable” (Credo For Today, p. 38). This is why, of course, he was forced into acceptance of Teilhardian Evolution: namely, that “matter is the prehistory of spirit” (Ibid., p. 45), and that the advent of a spiritual soul, and therefore a human being, in the history of evolution was the result of a process of material “complexification”. Thus , he writes:
    “This would then lead to the insight that spirit does not enter the picture as something foreign, as a second substance, in addition to matter: the appearance of spirit, according to the previous discussion, means rather that an advancing movement arrives at the goal that has been set for it….The clay became man at that moment in which a being for the first time was capable of forming, however dimly, the thought ‘God.’ The first ‘thou’ that – however stammeringly – was said by human lips to God marks the moment in which spirit arose in the world. Here the Rubicon of anthropogenesis was crossed. (Ibid. p. 46-47).
    As we have pointed out in previous articles, such a dimly-conscious and “stammering” soul is in complete contradiction to the Catholic doctrine that man was created in a state of original justice, possessing sanctifying grace and the full rationality and integrity of will to be responsible for his upright relationship to God. As a consequence of denial of this truth, out the window goes all the doctrines concerning the Fall, the necessity of Christ’s sacrificial restoration of man to friendship with God (the possession of sanctifying grace and charity), the sacrificial nature of the Mass, and the entire sacramental system. And much more. We must come to the full realization that although it is certainly true that such things as legitimizing a married priesthood, female deacons and priests, contraception, divorce and remarriage, the inclusion of pagan theology and worship, and liberation theology are all particular agendas for the upcoming Amazonian Synod, all of this is only the beginning for the planned victory of Teilhardian Cosmic Evolutionary Theology within the Universal Church.
    This Teilhardian-inspired evolutionary destruction of all that is Catholic is implicit in any sort of capitulation to evolutionary theory. We believe that at least some sort of nebulous belief in evolution is extraordinarily widespread among not only the Catholic laity, but also among seminarians, priests and the Catholic hierarchy. We might tend to downplay this presence because such belief is most often not well thought out, and therefore does not represent a fully conscious rejection of Catholic truth. But it is in fact the very “nebulosity” of such a belief which constitutes its destructiveness. It reflects and embodies a spiritual state of soul which amounts to an ongoing prostitution to the findings of bogus, reductive science, and therefore a profound vitiation of that gift of the Holy Spirit which is called fortitude, and which is entirely necessary for any Catholic in his or her combat with the spirit of the world, the flesh, and the devil.
    We must add that this “fuzziness” is especially tragic in the case of young seminarians and newly ordained priests who have a deep desire to be orthodox Catholics, and who possess a strong passion for the restoration of all things Catholic. Such “nebulous” lack of clarity and prostitution to the “science” of this world is bound to exert a corrosive effect upon the work of the Holy Spirit in their future ministry. Most important, it immerses them in a poisonous doubt and confusion concerning the “goodness” of man as originally created by God, and as described in the Genesis account. In so doing, it necessarily poisons their confidence in the purity of God’s goodness Himself. And in the face of the geometrically accelerating effects of such scientifically reductive thinking upon virtually all of contemporary mankind, it is almost certainly bound to immerse them increasingly in that poison which produces the bitterness and torpor of old men with old and disillusioned hearts. In other words, it almost inevitably produces that loss of spiritual childhood necessary for the inheritance of the Kingdom of God.
    As a remedy, we propose that such persons enter more deeply into the heart of Mary. Such impurity and filth still existing in the minds and hearts of those who truly wish to be immersed in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, cannot long continue to exist for those truly immersed in the purifying fire of her Immaculate Heart.

    Be aware Brunitix that evolution is the rotten fruit of the earlier heliocentric theory that was accepted in both Church and science. So do not look to churchmen for any clarity on this subject. Once they gave in to a biblical heliocentrism they had no option but to avoid condemning evolution even that the body of Adam came from 'pre-living matter.' Pope Pius XII in 1952 was telling the Pontifical Academy of Science that the Big Bang was the creative act of God and in Humani Generis he allowed discussion, that is the possibility, that Adam's body could have come from monkeys or whatever. Cardinal Ratzinger in his 1982 book 'IN THE BEGINNING' said Genesis had to be read in the ;'light' of modern science (Big Bang, evolved solar-system, then evolved life on Earth). John Paul II said evolutiomn was more than a hypothesis and Francis said God was not a magician who created all in working order.

    The teachings of the Church however, are 100% ex nihilo creation by God.

    The absurdity of evolution is an insult to human intelligence. It is not only nonsense but simple nonsense. You cannot have a living creature unless it contains all the parts necessary for life, complete and in working order.

    Real science has long established that a cell does not have the ability to do more than it is designed to do. It can fail in some way but cannot add to its function, becoming something more than itself. In other words, it cannot evolve into a more complicated structure as evolution requires it to do. They will allow small changes over time buit never into a new species. Nevertheless, to bypass this impossibility, they proposed failures and mistakes in cells called ‘mutations,’ achieved their ‘miracles,’ anything to keep the theory going. We are asked to believe a living cell mutated and kept on mutating, multiplying useful failures ending up as perfect designed functioning flora and fauna, kinds like trees, flowers, animals, fish, and insects, leaving aside a human being. We now ask how anything can survive unless complete with all its parts. What part of any creature evolved first from an evolved cell? Was it tissue, bone, muscle, blood, skin, hair or what? Which organ evolved first, the brain, the heart, the kidneys, the spleen, the glands, the eyes?  Which system evolved first, the circulatory system, the digestive system, the endocrine system, the respiratory system, the nervous system, the immune system, the lymphatic system, the muscular system, the skeletal system, the urinary system, the reproductive system? Could any creature function with an evolving endocrine system, an evolving digestive system, evolving senses etc.? Can one essential part of a living creature exist without the other? The answer is no and to argue otherwise is to indulge in proposing simple nonsense. So Brunitix you do not need a book to convince you of the absurdity of evolution..

    Of the billions of fossils found every one had all the parts, complete. QED.
