@derShasta@RevIsaacWirtz "entirely from scratch" is simply just a lie.
I highly recommend James Tour on this topic, to learn about how close we are to make a living cell from scratch.

@derShasta@RevIsaacWirtz The scientist basically they took crucial components from living cells - such as DNA - assemble them together, and got something that's worse than the original cells they took from.
The SSPX do not just prefer the old form of Mass... They call the Mass that feeds ~99% of Catholics "evil."
They claim it lacks "the True Sacrifice, the Real Presence, [&] the ministerial priesthood," yet all 3 are clearly in all approved Catholic rites.
By this, they are creating a new modernist religion, that replaces truth with subjective judgment.

This young champion just shocked the room by choosing a small Catholic school over the Ivy League or big state schools.
The people at Wyoming Catholic College must be ecstatic.
The look on President Trump's face is priceless.
[15] And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. [16] Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, [17] so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.
Revelation 13:15–17 (ESV)
"Nothing can happen to me that God doesn't want. And all that He wants, no matter how bad it may appear to us, is really for the best."
— Saint Thomas More
We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas
Genesis 1:3–5
[3] And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. [4] And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. [5] God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. (ESV)
Below is my interpretation:
On the first day He created the material universe and time (along with the angels). The "light" here in one sense can refer to energy which can be converted into mass according to E=mc^2, this is the material universe.
He also created time. Time is a concept which is intrinsically defined by movement of materials/energy/light. "And there was evening and there was morning, the first day." This verse describes the first movement. So everything starts to move, time begins.
The sun and moon are created on the 4th day. And the concept of "day" is talked about before God created the sun and moon. This is not a contradiction, it's just because He wants to make us silly creatures understand that there is an abstract concept of "time" even before the sun is created.

@javierforelder@realDrTT The Church teaches that angels are created on the 1st day of creation (while Adam was created on the 6th day).
On the 1st day the angels were given a choice whether to serve God's plan, and those who would not serve are the demons, including Lucifer.
“When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”

Another hint that it is not a normal greeting is in the very next verse:
“But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and tried to discern what sort of greeting this might be.”
Luke 1:29 ESV
@MarkRuckman6@HoldenCCole Look at all the places where the greeting Χαῖρε was used: Hail Rabbi, Hail King (x3), Hail highly favored one (full of grace).
This is not a common greeting for just anyone.
