A Bird In The Hand...: Some Thoughts Concerning Evolution, Creation, and the Teaching of the Catholic Church

The year 2009 marks the 150th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s publication On the Origin of Species. The author became interested in the topic of the debate between creation and the theory of evolution many years ago and has read and studied about it over the years. She presents her reasons for coming down on the side of a literal reading of the first eleven chapters of the Book of Genesis in the Bible and attempts to show that this is a crucial issue for our time.
