The record of papal support for evolution

Pretty comprehensive seeming record of Popes arguing for the compatibility of evolution with the theistic account, going back at least as far as 1950.

Sometimes I have these narrative voiceovers on top of the standard buzz of thoughts. They will have the character of little moments, where I'll realize things like "This thought is strange and novel, and so is the experience of thinking it." What triggered it while reading the Popes' words was seeing that your typical red-state religious American is more conservative on evolution than any of the last four Popes of the Catholic Church.
