REVIEWS

As the devil strives to immerse and drown the world in darkness and confusion under the guise of science, and as he savagely launches his attacks on the pivotal doctrines of Holy Mother Church, the “Foundations Restored” DVD series casts a bright light which exposes and defeats the camouflaged lie of the Devil. The series offers logical, scientific, philosophical and theological arguments which not only restore the “Creation Providence” account to its proper place, but also liberate the whole realm of natural science from the grasp of its evolutionist hijackers. I therefore recommend the DVD series “Foundations Restored” without reservation for circulation in the public domain so as to combat error and to proclaim the reign of TRUTH.
Bishop Sanctus Lino Wanok, Bishop of the Diocese of Lira, Uganda

The presenters defend the traditional and authentic teachings on creation not by using their personal opinions, but by ably quoting from what has been preserved through centuries from the Church’s Magisterium and Holy Scripture. The presentation demonstrates how fervently and uninterruptedly the Church’s Magisterium has preserved the authentic doctrine of Creation while submitting to the superior and infallible deposit of Scripture. I have no reason whatsoever to doubt the truths presented in this video series as regards our origins. It is not only ridiculous, but also nonsensical to imagine that the powerful species of humankind with all its intelligence could have evolved through some kind of “Special Transformism,” as this kind of thinking does a lot of injustice to the grandeur of the human person. It is only by acknowledging the fact that we were directly and immediately created by God, that we can preserve the sacredness of our human species who reflect the image of the Creator.

Rt. Rev. Dr. Joseph Eciru Oliach, Bishop of Soroti Catholic Diocese - Soroti, Uganda
The science presented in this series needs to be carefully considered in any program of science or biology which is presented in our Catholic Schools. I look forward to the completion of the entire series.
Bishop Robert F. Vasa, Bishop of the Diocese of Santa Rosa, California
"Foundations Restored" is a must see for any Catholic, whether clergy or lay person, who seeks the truth about what the Church has always taught in regard to Genesis and the origins of man and the universe. In today’s anti-life culture more than ever, it is paramount that Catholics trust Divine Revelation over scientific speculation.
Fr. Stephen Imbarrato, LifeMinistriesUS
I heartily recommend the DVD series “Foundations Restored,” and I am grateful to God and to the Kolbe Center for this powerful means to bring the truth to souls. As the apocalyptic dragon continues to wage war against the truth proclaimed for centuries by Christ’s Bride, the very foundations of our Faith are threatened by the all-pervasive lie of evolution. Hugh Owen and his colleagues simply and deftly debunk the evolutionary myth, restoring natural science to its proper position as the humble handmaid of Divine Truth.
Mother Abbess Cecilia, Benedictines of Mary, Gower, Missouri
Foundations Restored is a systematic, exhaustive, science-based dismantling of the scientific pretensions of the neo-Darwinian narrative of molecules-to-man evolution presented as textbook orthodoxy in the schools. As even the atheist philosopher Thomas Nagel has admitted, the Neo-Darwinian narrative is “a heroic triumph of ideological theory over common sense. … I would be willing to bet that the present right-thinking consensus will come seem laughable in a generation or two.” Foundations Restored shows the basis for that prediction, attacking the primary dogmas of the Neo-Darwinian narrative without which it forfeits any claim to explanatory power: a universe and an earth presumed to be billions of years old, and the descent of man from simian-like ancestors. Over the last century, the unexamined claims of evolutionism have undermined the foundations of the Faith, from the seminaries to the Catholic schools, eroding belief in the inerrancy of Scripture and in particular the Genesis account of Creation and the true origin of Man, without which the dogma of Original Sin and the Faith itself cannot be sustained. Foundations Restored uses the data of science to refute pseudo-science in order to restore to their proper place what Pope Saint Pius X called “facts which touch the foundation of the Christian religion.” The mighty work of exposing the Neo-Darwinian Trojan horse in the Church has begun. It has begun with Foundations Restored, which belongs in every Catholic seminary and school.
Christopher A Ferrara, Esq., Catholic Author and Attorney
The pervasiveness of the theory of evolution cannot be due to its merits because it fails the test of science, logic and metaphysics (to name just three disciplines). Could it continue to gain adherents from a fear of love? The Kolbe Center does a great service in its new DVD series "Foundations Restored" by explaining the impossibility of evolution and more importantly by inviting us to the Love of God revealed in the Creation account in Genesis.
Kathy Sinnott, former Member of the European Parliament for the Republic of Ireland and Co-Foundress of Newman College Ireland
Foundations Restored is a MARVELOUS work, of historical importance! All the arguments regarding the theory of evolution are presented in the first episodes from the point of view of the Magisterium and the Church Fathers, in the following episodes from the point of view of science and in the last episodes the effects of the theory of evolution on society are shown and how the theory of evolution was one of the underlying philosophical principles inspiring the loss of faith and the mass murders of Hitler, Stalin and Mao and later the Planned Parenthood abortion industry and the homosexual ideology. One of the main reasons why the Church has been losing the cultural wars battles against the forces of Darkness over the last century, is the widespread acceptance of the false theory of evolution among many Catholics. For this theory contradicts the inerrancy of Holy Scripture, undermines the dogma of Original Sin and does away with the credibility of the Church Fathers and Sacred Tradition. Let us pray that God would hasten the day when the Church, guided by the Holy Spirit, will formally declare the theory of evolution to be what it is - a pernicious heresy and a clever deception of the Father of Lies!
Monk Miikael, Norway/Estonia
