Summary

Today I sit down with Dominican priest Fr. Nicancor Austriaco to discuss evolution, genesis and Adam and Eve.

Fr. Nicanor Austriaco is a Catholic priest in the Order of Friars Preachers. Born in the Philippines, he earned his Ph.D. degree in Biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After completing his doctoral studies, he was a fellow of the International Human Frontier Science Program at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research at the University College London.

... Seriously if I kept going you'd be reading longer than it took to listen to this podcast. He's a smart dude, okay?

0:00.0	Welcome to Points with the Quinus, my name is Matt Fred.
0:03.4	So if you could sit down over a pint of beer, right, with Thomas Aquinas,
0:07.4	and if you could ask him any question, what would it be?
0:11.3	Today we're going to try and get three or four questions in.
0:13.7	We're going to say to Thomas Aquinas, okay, big guy.
0:16.3	I want you to tell me about evolution, whether it contradicts Genesis,
0:19.8	and whether or not there was an original Adam and Eve.
0:23.2	Yes, yes, yes, welcome back to Points with the Quinus.

1:04.8	But as I say, we're going to discuss things like evolution and Adam and Eve.
1:09.2	All right, does evolution contradict God's existence?
1:13.0	Or does it contradict Genesis at least?

1:16.6	Can we still say that that's possible?
1:19.1	If so, how?
1:20.9	It's a really fascinating discussion.
1:23.0	So if it's night time, grab yourself a beer, but you know what?
1:27.2	You might be better today to get five shots of espresso because this is a big one.
