“Without biological evolution which produced the brain, there would be no sanctified souls; similarly, without the evolution of collective thought which alone can realize on earth the fullness of human consciousness, could there be a consummated Christ?” — Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (from Note sur le Progres, quoted in Robert Speaight, “The Life of Teilhard de Chardin“, p. 112)
