I’m not religious nor Catholic but I never saw how scientific theory conflicted with the idea of god. Couldn’t it all just be “gods plan?” Sounds like the Catholic position is similar to that.

It's mostly about the creation of man. The bible says we were created in his image. And most take that to mean, we've always been and looked this way. They haven't considered god might have looked like ape or something from the soup of life's creation. It the conventional interpretation that doesn't jibe. And if Darwin had written "ascend" instead, maybe it wouldn't have been as controversial.

Yeah see that still works out to me as if there is a god similar to the abrahamic conception, all of life has been created in their image. From bacteria to man.
