And 40% of 'em can't find France on a map. You DO realize, 50% of
the people on the planet (most of 'em "religious") are of BELOW
average intelligence. BY DEFINITION.

Several people have asked me for proof that Darwin believed that a creator
God was responsible for the creation of mankind.

I found information on a website:

http://pandasthumb.org/archives/2008/03/expelled-expose.html

I wonder, would a public school teacher in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, be
allowed to say the following:
�It is interesting to contemplate � [all the many forms of life on earth]
� so different from each other, have all been produced by laws acting
around us. � There is grandeur in this view of life, HAVING BEEN
ORIGINALLY BREATHED [BY THE CREATOR] INTO A FEW FORMS OR INTO ONE; and
that from so simple a beginning, endless forms most beautiful and most
wonderful have been, and are being evolved.�
Just imagine a public school teacher who says those words: that God
creates life and places it on the earth in a few forms, and then that life
evolves according to the physical and natural laws that God put into place
in the universe.
Would that be allowed?
Actually, it should be REQUIRED FOR THE TEACHER TO SAY THAT.
Why? Because the quote is from: On the Origin of the Species, Chapter XV,
Recapitulation and Conclusion, By Charles Darwin.
If you are going to teach Darwin�s theory of evolution in public schools,
you should teach what Darwin actually wrote about it.
Michael S. Class Author
Anthony and the Magic Picture Frame: The History Book with a Message for
Today�s Young Americans

If you google "breathed into a few forms or into one", you will get lots
of hits and may be able to find the name of the edition that had these
words.

One internet website stated that the actual words were:

There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers having
been orginially breathed into a few forms or into one.

Darwin (in his younger years) planned to become a minister and as a result
knew lots of information about the Bible. He may have had this scripture
in mind when he wrote the above quotation:

Genesis 2:7 An the Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground and
breathed life into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living
soul.

Why do you believe that Darwin made this statement:

"There is grandeur in this view of life, HAVING BEEN
ORIGINALLY BREATHED [BY THE CREATOR] INTO A FEW FORMS OR INTO ONE; and
that from so simple a beginning, endless forms most beautiful and most
wonderful have been, and are being evolved."

I define it to mean that Darwin believed God breathed life into Adam and
perhaps also into Eve and that God made an endless number of plants and
animals that were beautiful and wonderful. Those plants and animals later
evolved.
