Lesson 8

What Questions Are Raised by God's Existence?

In this chapter your students will learn that…
■ The existence of God cannot be rationally disproved.
■ There is no real conflict between the truths of science and the truths of faith.
■ Science and the Bible are two different sources for understanding creation. As long as certain truths about creation are maintained, Catholics are free to believe that evolution is a scientifically valid theory for the development of species.
