: The theories of evolution and the Big Bang are real and God is not "a
: magician with a magic wand", Pope Francis has declared.
教宗方濟各表態說演化論與大霹靂是真實的，而且天主並不是「一個拿著魔杖的魔術師」
: Speaking at the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, the Pope explained that both
: scientific theories were not incompatible with the existence of a creator -
: arguing instead that they "require it".
: "When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was
: a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so,"
: Francis said.
在一場於宗座科學學院的演講中，教宗解釋這兩個學說與造物主的存有並不衝突，反而是
「必要的」。
「當我們在『創世紀』中讀到創造萬有的記載時，我們常常把天主想做一位揮揮魔杖就能
做到任何事情的魔術師。但並非盡是如此」方濟各如此說道。
: "He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws
: that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfilment," he added.
: "The Big Bang, which today we hold to be the origin of the world, does not
: contradict the intervention of the divine creator but, rather, requires it,"
: the Pope noted.
: "Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because
: evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve."
「祂創造了人類並給予他們關於改變的內在規律，藉此使他們達到圓滿」他補充。
「我們現今視作世界起源的大霹靂，與神的創造並不衝突，反而是其中的重要一部分」
教宗指出。
「而自然的演化也與萬物的被造不衝突，因為演化提供了受造物們改變的契機」
: The Catholic Church has long had a reputation for being anti-science – most
: famously when Galileo faced the inquisition and was forced to retract his “
: heretic” theory that the Earth revolved around the Sun.
: But Pope Francis’s comments were more in keeping with the progressive work
: of Pope Pius XII, who opened the door to the idea of evolution and actively
: welcomed the Big Bang theory. In 1996, John Paul II went further and
: suggested evolution was “more than a hypothesis” and “effectively proven
: fact”.
: Yet more recently, Benedict XVI and his close advisors have apparently
: endorsed the idea that intelligent design underpins evolution – the idea
: that natural selection on its own is insufficient to explain the complexity
: of the world. In 2005, his close associate Cardinal Schoenborn wrote an
: article saying “evolution in the sense of common ancestry might be true, but
: evolution in the neo-Darwinian sense – an unguided, unplanned process – is
: not”.
長久以來天主教都保有「反對科學」的名聲，最為著名的就是伽利略被迫收回他「異端的」
日心說這件事。
不過教宗方濟各的觀點可說是延續自那位對演化論打開大門並直接歡迎大霹靂學說的教宗
庇護十二世的立場。接著在1996年教宗若望保祿二世更進一步的表示演化論「不只是個假
說」且是「一個受到有力證明的事實」。
而在近年教宗本篤十六世與他的親信顧問則十分明顯的贊同神導演化論的觀點－此一觀點
認為自然發展並不能解釋為何世界如此複雜。2005年時他一個親信史裘博恩樞機曾撰文表
示「關於演化自共同祖先的說法可能是真的，不過關於新達爾文主義所說的演化是毫無計
畫與章法的說法則否」
: Giovanni Bignami, a professor and president of Italy’s National Institute
: for Astrophysics, told the Italian news agency Adnkronos: “The pope’s
: statement is significant. We are the direct descendents from the Big Bang
: that created the universe. Evolution came from creation.”
: Giulio Giorello, professor of the philosophy of science at Milan’s
: University degli Studi, told reporters that he believed Francis was “trying
: to reduce the emotion of dispute or presumed disputes” with science.
義大利國家天文研究所主席喬凡尼.貝格梅受義大利國家通訊社Adnkronos採訪時說「教宗
的發言主旨很明確，我們生活於誕生自大霹靂的宇宙，而演化源自於創造」
米蘭大學的科學哲學教授朱利奧.裘里洛則告訴採訪者他相信方濟各是對「試圖降低關於科
學的對立情緒以及潛在的衝突」
: Despite the huge gulf in theological stance between his tenure and that of his
: predecessor, Francis praised Benedict XVI as he unveiled a bronze bust of him
: at the academy's headquarters in the Vatican Gardens.
:“No one could ever say of him that study and science made him and his love for
: God and his neighbour wither,” Francis said, according to a translation by
: the Catholic News Service.
:“On the contrary, knowledge, wisdom and prayer enlarged his heart and his
: spirit.Let us thank God for the gift that he gave the church and the world with
: the existence and the pontificate of Pope Benedict.”
儘管與他的前任在神學立場上有極大的不同，教宗方濟各依然以在科學院位於梵蒂岡花園
的總部為本篤十六世的銅像揭幕來表揚他。
「沒有人可以說他的研究和科學會降低他對天主以及他們近人的愛」方濟各說。
（原文有說該段發言取自天主教新聞社的翻譯，與翻成中文無關故略）
「相反的，知識智慧和祈禱開拓了他的胸懷以及精神。讓我們感謝天主的贈與，因祂使得
教會與全世界得以存在以及教宗本篤十六世這位宗座」
===========
簡單來說教宗方濟各的觀點是承襲自庇護十二世、若望保祿二世以及在世的本篤十六世的
觀點。
