The theological debate is pretty much this: the Catholic Church and many “progressive” Christians see no conflict between Evolution and Genesis, they understand that science is about how we came about and the Bible is about why.

Fundamentalists and Biblical literalists see a conflict between Evolution and Creation and are willing to reject science, math and logic in order to make their case against the former.

Great post! All I can say is those dang Nuns beat the science stuff in our heads. Fricking learning the Gas laws in 6th grade sucked.
