There has to have been the first of everything we know. God revealed himself to the Jews and let them explain the world that they knew and we know today in terms of the Father, Creator of all things. There is no way that the people of Genesis could have made sense of Evolution over periods of millions of years. The timescales are God's but they are translated into human time. The first week of creation asserts that what was created was good. It was out of Love that it grew and could be only Good. 

There is nothing in the created "Big Bang" that is the ever expanding Universe that can come close to the infinite Being of our never changing and always ever greater than anything we can know God. We must thank Father, Son and Holy Spirit for the beauty of creation and  for the freedom to study and grow in the understanding that we have of our world and of our place within it. We must try to accept that each one of us is a new Adam or Eve who arrives in the Natural World to be welcomed by the instinctive "Mother's Love" which is the gift of our Loving Creator to all animals, including us, that Our Father bestows on all the world.

Mankind has been filled with an ever greater pride in itself by its free use of intelligence to understand the material of our World. God has largely been cast aside, Man is the Greatest of all beings and Humanism rules.The Truth, however is that  we are still all the Adams and Eves of the first creation and we like them are still damaging the "Good"that was the "Garden" both physically and spiritually by the same misuse of our Godlike freedom that we inherit as Original Sin.

Dear Lord may the peoples of the Far East come to the realisation that the teachings of Jesus accepted by the  Christians of Nagasaki whom they slaughtered are still the truth for all as they are the sure way to new life everlasting. May Mary with all the martyrs of Asia continue in their prayers for all mankind and for the souls waiting for God's Mercy.
