See
the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists,
8 (1952), p. 143-6, 165 for a translation of part of the Papal text. For an excellent discussion of it see Ernan
McMullin, "How should <!g>cosmology relate to theology?" in The Sciences and Theology in the Twentieth Century, A. R. <!g>Peacocke,
ed. (Notre Dame: University of Notre Dame, 1981), p. 17-57. According to McMullin, the Pope later
refrained from this claim after being cautioned by Georges Lemaitre. Though a Roman Catholic Priest and one of
the founders of <!g>Big Bang cosmology, Lemaitres view was "two worlds": keep
theology and science entirely separate.
