It is not commonly known that Charles Darwin, while a naturalist |
It is not commonly known that Charles Darwin, while a naturalist and
apostate preacher aboard the Beagle, was initiated into witchcraft in South
America by nationals.
During horseback travels into the interior, he took part in their
ceremonies and, as a result, something happened to him. Upon his return to
England, although his health was strangely weakened, he spent the rest of
his life working on theories to destroy faith in the Creator.

Ffs Raytard, talk about a pathetic, miserable ad hominem. So fucking what
if he was a follower of Vlad the Impaler, it makes not one gnat's ***** of
a difference to the TOE
What a sad little tart you are, FOAD.
Funny, Christians are prone to saying we shouldn't consider the fallible,
human Christian but the message (particularly when a Christian gets caught
doing something they shouldn't be doing). But when it comes to science,
we're to ignore the message and look to the fallible human.
Hm...

And yet, evolution works. Science has a way to make weak-minded persons
incoherent and blasphemous to their own religion.

The captain of the HMS Beagle was a Christian and a critic of Darwin
during the years after Darwin published his famous book. He felt really
bad about giving Darwin a copy of a book entitled, "Principles of Geology"
(by Lyle). It's possible that Darwin would never have written his famous
book if he had not first read Lyle's book. I don't know whether or not
Darwin gave credit to Lyle in his famous book.

Unfortunately, the ICR has a history of writing what it wants to sell
its doctrine. This may be an accurate article, but I do not consider the
ICR to be a reliable or honest organization. It lies about science, why
should I expect it to be honest about history?

Assuming this were true, which I doubt, so what?
It doesn't affect the observed fact of evolution
or the theory that explains it so well.
