There are plenty of words written about the subject if you are interested. For example, here is a brief overview of Catholic teaching about creation and science: http://www.catholic.com/tracts/adam-eve-and-evolution

If you would like to read more, you can look up any number of scientists, philosophers, theologians, educators, etc.

Keep in mind that www.catholic.com is a website made by laypeople and not the official position of the Catholic Church. Their answers usually tilt towards the conservative side. Here's a Catholic Review article that shows a position within the Catholic Church that's more critical of the biblical narrative (and more supportive of the scientific consensus):

This really show that the catholic position is barely an improvement on the baptist creationists. Their only point of disagreement seems to be on the time line.
