Recently a priest friend of mine on the other side of the world wrote to me to say how much he had come to appreciate the link between the traditional liturgy of the Roman Rite and the traditional doctrine of creation.

It was not until I went to college that I began to recognize the serious inconsistencies with this position. I had tried to maintain a certain confidence that the teachings of the Church and "modern science" were compatible. I even tried to use evolution as a way to reach out to my atheistic professors, who would typically shoot down the notion with statements such as "evolution takes away the need of a creator God."

After I came to this realization, everything fell into place. If Jesus could create enough bread and fish to feed 5,000, why couldn't God create the known universe in 6 days?
