Mobile Version: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4

Today we are joined by Hugh Owen, the director of the Kolbe Center for the Study of Creation, for an in depth discussion on the Traditional Catholic Doctrine of Creation, and why evolution is in fact a contrary worldview that is not compatible with the Catholic faith. We will cover the basic objections to the doctrine of Creation, both from the standpoint of atheistic evolution, based strictly upon the science as well as theistic evolution, which will include discussion of the social impact of Darwinian theory via Eugenics and Communism.
