Does God evolve? How evolution and A.I. are pushing the horizons of theology

Most Catholics these days don’t think there is a conflict between
the theory of evolution and their faith. But it’s harder to wrap
our heads around the idea that we’re still evolving—and that God
might be, too. This week, we talk with Sister Ilia Delio, a
theologian who thinks we can’t separate the evolving nature of our
universe and consciousness from our faith. We ask Sister Delio what
it’s like to work at the cutting edge of theology, where rapidly
changing technology and artificial intelligence might be taking us
as a species, and what that means for the church. In Signs of the
Times, Zac and Ashley discuss the still-open questions about the
legacy and implementation of the Second Vatican Council, which
opened 60 years ago this week. Did the council fail? What would
success look like, and what would the church look like today if
Vatican II hadn’t happened? Links from the show: Did Vatican II
