OHHH!

The Rambam said:

“The Torah can not be false. What hhs been proven to be true can not be false by definition. Therefore if your understanding of Torah is contradicted by what has been proven to be true, the only thing that can be wrong is your understanding of Torah.”

In other words, if your reading of Torah (Genesis being the first book of it) makes you think that evolution didn’t happen, then you are reading it wrong.

Rambam’s entire point and thrust was to bridge perceived gaps between Torah and the science of his day.

To say that this punk who misuses him is shameless is an understatement beyond measure.
