Welcome, Catholic Pilgrims. You wanna talk nuance, today, we are gonna hear nuance on a level you've never seen before.

Hello, Catholic Pilgrims, welcome back. Today, we are getting a bit of preface before St. Augustine goes into a back and forth with people who disagree with his take on the beginning sentences of Genesis. We won't see that back and forth today, but he's prepping us in a way.

With that, let's read from Book Twelve, Chapter Sixteen on page 293.
