Evolution and the Creation of Man

Lesson Forty-Four of Aquinas 101, with Fr Dominic Legge, OP, JD, STL, STD, Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology and Director of the Thomistic Institute.


Where does intelligent life come from? Can one reconcile evolution and the creation of man? Does human life simply emerge or evolve from lower forms of life? In this episode of Aquinas 101: Science and Faith, join Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P., a Dominican friar from the Province of St. Joseph, as he presents how God intervened in history and did something new to bring about a new kind of creature, which we call the human being – a higher animal than had ever before existed, endowed with a spiritual and therefore rational soul. This video is an excerpt from Lesson 43: Evolution and the Creation of Man (Aquinas 101) by Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
