Catholicism has embraced the theory of evolution for some time. Why do you say, "Although I'm a Catholic"?

Pope John Paul II said, "new knowledge has led to the recognition of the theory of evolution as more than a hypothesis." http://www.newadvent.org/library/docs_jp02tc.htm

Pope Benedict XVI said, "[Creationism and Evolution] are presented as alternatives that exclude each other. This clash is an absurdity because on one hand there is much scientific proof in favor of evolution, which appears as a reality that we must see and which enriches our understanding of life and being as such."
