TheAtheisticevolutionist believesthateverythingintheuniverse,livingandnon-living,wasevolvedfrommatterorFirstCause.

TheAgnosticschoolholdtheview thiaatintheEvolutionofthehigher omthelowerformsoflifethere wasaFirstCause,butwhatthat FirstCausewaswedonotknow,for itisunthinkable.Agnosticism,as ithasbeenwellsaid,isworsethan Atheism,foranAtheist,althoughhe maydenytheexistenceofGod,is opentodiscussthesubject.Butan Agnosticrefusesto'discussthematter,forhesaysthatiftherebea God lleisunknowableandbeyond ourreason,orasHiexley,whowas thefirsttousethetermputsit"Whytroubleourselvesaboutmattersofwhich,howeverimportant theymaybe,weknownothing,or canknownothing."Tothisstatementwemayopposeanotherofa scientistathousandtimesgreater thanHuxley,theimmortalIsaac Newton,whosaid: "Totreatof Godasadeductionfromwhatwe seeispartofnaturalphilosophy andthisexactmachir.eryofsun,rlanetsandcometscouldonly,originate fromtheplanandpowerofanintelligentandmightyBeing."

THECHRISTIANSCHOOL.

ThethirdschoolofEvolutionis theChristianschool,andtheyacceptasthebedrockandfundamental truthoftheircreedthewordsof Genesisthat"InthebeginningGod createdheavenandearth." Now, whatistheattitudeofCatholicstowardsEvolution?

ItwillbeevidentthataCatholic cannotbelongtoeithertheAtheistic orAgnosticschoolofEvolution,but hecan,ifhechoose,beaChristian evolutionist.BishopHedleystates, that"thereisnothinginthedoctrineoforganicEvolutionandits mainfactornaturalselection,thatis opposedtoCatholicFaith,provided thatthestudentofnatureholdsfast tothetruththattheCreatorplannedtheUniversefromthebeginning, andthattheunfoldingororganic lifetakesplacebytheoperationof lawslaiddownbytheDivineWill."

ST.THOMAS.

St.Thomas,theAngelicDoctor, heldthesameopinionasSt.GregoryandSt.Augustine.Hencea Catholiccanbelieveinthegeneral theoryofEvolution,alwaysprovidedthathelikewisebelievesthat Godcreatedallthingsintheuniverse andtheyaredirectedandcontrolled by,Him.TheCatholicevolutionist cansaywithProfessorFiske, an ardentChristianevolutionist"The doctrineofEvolutiondestroysthe conceptionoftheworldasamachine.ItmakesGodourconstantrefugeandsupport,andnatureHis truerevelation. Thoughscience mustdestroymythology,itcanneverdestroyreligion,andtotheastronomerofthefuture,astothe Psalmistofold,theheavenswill declarethegloryofGod."

DARWINISMANDEVOLUTIoN.

ThereisonefactthataCatholic studentshouldalwaysremember,and thatiswhenEvoldtionoranyscientificproblemseemstobeopposedto hisFaiththeProblemcannot be true,fortheworksoftheCreator cannevercontradictthewordsof theCreator.Henceheshouldcloselyexaminetheproblemonscientific groundsalone.Take,forexample, Darwinism,whichisusedatthePresentdaybyRationaliststounderminereligion. Mostpeoplethink thatDarwinismisEvolution,and EvolutionisDarwinism. Inone sensetheyareright,forifithad notbeenforthepublication"Onthe OriginofSpeciesbyMhansofNaturalSelection,"in1859,byCharles Darwin,Evolutionwouldnothave bulkedsolargelyinthepublicmind duringthepastfiftyyears.Whilst thegeneraltheoryofEvolutionhas causedspeculationfromtheearliest daysofthehumanrace,toDarwin andDr.A.R.WallacemustbeaccordedthehonourofnotonlytheorizingaboutEvolution,butofseeking toproveitstruthbytheirlife-long laboursinthestudyofpla..tand animallife.Darwinism,whilstembracingthegeneraltheoryofEvolution,introducesacausetoaccount forthedevelopmentofthehigher fromthelowerformsoflife,andthis causeistermed"naturalselection," or"thesurvivalofthefittest."

AccordingtotheVeryRev.Dr. Zahm,inhislearnedworkon"EvolutionandDogma,"thegreat Ceeegorywhowasthefirsttoconceiveandformulatethenebularhypothesis,heldtheviewthatGod firstcreatedmatterasaformless massinarebulonscondition.'i'o thismatterHeimpressedthepower ofdevelopingintoallthevarious shapesandformsitafterwardsassumed.Hence,accordingtothis view,theuniverseandallitcontains,theearthandallthatinhabit it-plants,ar.imals,andman-were createdbyGodindifferentways.The firstorprimalmaterial,thenebulous matterfromwhichallthingswere fashioned,wascreateddirectly,and immediately,whereasallthecountlesscreaturesofthevisibleworld wereproducedindirectlyormediatel bytheoperationofsecondarycauses,orwhatwascommonlytermed, "thelawsofnature."
