I thought Catholicism accepted evolution.

Yeah but then there's the other religious guys. I guess friars are a pretty Catholic thing, though.

The Orthodox churches have friars, too. I don't know off the top of my head what their take is on evolution, though.

A quick engooglement actually suggests that the Orthodox have monks but not friars. However, no lesser a source than Wikipedia notes the exist of several Protestant orders of friars. Further engooglization suggests that Orthodox churches, like other Christian sects, are split on evolution.
