Thanks for the article.  It indicated Cardinal Poupard to have said:

> He argued that the real message of Genesis was that the Universe did not make
itself, and had a creator.

And then it said:

> In Rome, the immediate reaction was that this was a Vatican rejection of the
fundamentalist American doctrine of "intelligent design."

Which I don't get at all.  Cardinal Poupard's argument above, so far as I
can tell, is indistinguishable from fundamentalist Intelligent Design in its
final conclusion.
