"The Vatican will publish the minutes of the Pope's recent meeting
with his former doctoral students in which he discussed the Catholic
Church's position on the origins of life, evolution, and creationism."


"Fessio explained that the conclusion that God created the world is
not a scientific position, but a philosophical one. This, he said, is where
the Catholic Church differs from the creationist movement in the US.

He told the news service: "There's a controversy in the United States
because there is a lack of awareness of a thing called philosophy.
Evangelicals and creationists generally lack it and Catholics have
it.""
