[Editor’s Note: this is the sixth article in Sir Raymond de Souza’s Teilhard de Chardin series. Here are links to the first five – Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5] Let us see in what terms Fr. Teilhard de Chardin introduces us to evolution, so that we may evaluate well the transposition he made, unsustainably, from paleontology to metaphysics. What is evolution? Teilhard responds: "One theory, one system, one hypothesis, Evolution?... No: more than this, a general … [Read more...]
The Fanatical Extrapolation from Paleontology to Metaphysics in the Weird Thinking of Father Teilhard de Chardin
[Editor's Note: this is the fifth article in Sir Raymond de Souza's Teilhard de Chardin series. Here are links to the first four - Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4] Father Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was a firm, enthusiastic believer in the absolute evolution of the species and of the whole universe.

On pages 106-107 of his chef-d’oeuvre, "L'Apparition de l'Homme"” we read: "From man (i.e., a true Homo Sapiens), three skulls of adults were obtained, absolutely complete (mandible included), a pelvis with two femurs, the radius, the tibia, the calcaneus, etc. In short, half a dozen individuals are represented, including a child" (see pp. 106-107). That is, fossils of Homo … [Read more...]

It seems to me that the heavens are angry at what we are about to do and are unhappy with us.” — A Winter’s Tale, William Shakespeare. The Scriptures and Holy Tradition teach us about the kinds of sin that cry to Heaven for vengeance. In Genesis 4:10, we learn about the blood of Abel cried to God for vengeance. In Genesis 18:20 and 19:13 we learn about the abominations … [Read more...]
National Catholic Reporter MUST be Banned by US Bishops
In its latest bid for "Most Heretical Publication Since the 95 Theses of Martin Luther," the National Catholic Reporter has really outdone itself. Bearing the headline, "Editorial: Our persons of the year for 2015," National Catholic Reporter officially honored the plaintiffs behind the most immoral Supreme Court decision since Roe v. Wade, saying: "For their historic roles as plaintiffs in Obergefell v. Hodges and for their faithful public witness as gay Catholics, we name Greg Bourke and … [Read more...]
