Here is a compilation of various resources for Catholics and other Christians to begin digging into the perennial beliefs regarding the historicity of the creation story laid out in the First Book of Moses. A lot of this was originally sourced by Gideon Lazar but I have tweaked some things and added imbedded links to all of the works cited. This is not a finished product and will continue to be a work in progress. I hope that people find this interesting and helpful.

Pontifical Biblical Commission
The commission was granted explicit papal approval as authoritatively binding by Pope Saint Pius X in 1907 (Praestantia Scripturae) until that authority was rescinded by Pope Saint Paul VI in 1971 (Sedula Cura). The rescinding does not retroactively make the previous issued decrees non-binding but merely removes that prerogative from further decrees by the commission. Much of the decrees are only available in Latin and Italian but the first 50 years are in English here.

Charlotte is the most beautiful woman in the world. Charlotte is the ewig-weibliche that we get at the end of Faust. She is the eternal feminine. She is something for him to strive for; something that he wants with all his heart and soul. She is the most valuable thing in the universe. She is the center of all of creation, all of the planets revolve around her. And the difficulty is: she is unimaginably commonplace.
Michael Sugrue, Goethe, The Sorrows of Young Werther

Are we supposed to treat men and women equally? When you get the feminists and the men's rights groups complaining how a certain action or behavior is ignored in one sex but condemned or celebrated in the other, they're coming at the issue as if men and women are interchangeable units and not vastly different in terms of size and mentality. But maybe it's natural we have different standards based on what each sex brings to society. I admit, as a woman I judge women more harshly for bad behavior because I know how women think, whereas it's not my place to judge a man because I can't see things from their view. So I'm saying, is the constant obsession that 'if a man did that' or 'when a woman does it' really missing the point because we've always asked different things from them and so it's inevitable we're going to judge them separately as we're not comparing like for like?
In things that are due to human dignity either naturally or supernaturally, yes. In everything else, no. I don’t believe there are two people on earth who ought to be treated “equally” in a strict sense.

this is not in reference to anything i’ve been posting about recently btw i think it’s just a product of overstimulation, stress, and chronic neurosis about a different topic i was reading about earlier
