      Pope Francis announced that he now embraces the science of Evolution & the Big Bang. Hmm. I wonder if he just watched Cosmos?

          @neiltyson Way back in 1952, Pope Pius XII spoke of evolution theory and said that there was not an inherent conflict w/ Catholic teaching.

          @neiltyson After you study actual Catholic history/teaching on Evolution & Big Bang, retraction of Pope Francis comment seems appropriate.

          @neiltyson Evolution theory was taught as standard course material in my rural Catholic school 7th grade science class in 1977.

          @uxixu I think that Neil has little insight of how much this science is built upon the work of Catholics, Catholic clergy & Catholic Church.
