Teilhard most likely in Hell.. Supposed to be Priest, but a liar and a cheat.. faked the peking man for his evolutionary cabalistic mates. I would not even label him catholic..

Being a believer that it was the mechanism by which God created the heavens and the Earth, and greatly annoying the church for less literal interpretations of the bible. Of course, I don't believe evolution was the mechanism of the creation, but I don't believe the bible is infallible either. Interestingly, it was Peter who mentioned 1,000 year long days but this too is not a literall interpretation. Teilhard was present at the discovery of "Peking Man", and also conceived such crazy ideas as the Omega Point and the Noosphere. When I picked up on Phillip's quote, I complemented it in it's own right, it stands alone and I was not necessarily endorsing the teachings and life long studies of Teilhard.
