Did Evolution Undermine Original Sin?
Description
In this discussion, the controversial legacy of Jesuit priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin is examined: a Catholic thinker who attempted to reconcile evolution with Christian theology. From his involvement in the Piltdown Man discovery to his evolutionary vision of the “Omega Point,” Teilhard proposed bold reinterpretations of original sin and human origins that drew serious concern from Church authorities. After repeated warnings, restrictions, and a posthumous Vatican monitum on his writings, debate over his influence continues. Did Teilhard enrich Catholic thought, or did his evolutionary theology undermine foundational doctrines like sin and grace? This episode explores the tension between evolution, doctrine, and authority within the Catholic Church.
Speaker Fr. Martin Hilbert.
