First, why are you adding [BY THE CREATOR] to what he wrote?

From what words? Darwin makes no mention of a god creating mankind. You're adding the "god" to his works. What will you add next?

"There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being, evolved." � Charles Darwin My interpretation: God breathed life into Adam and perhaps also into Eve. God also created an endless number of beautiful and wonderful plants and animals. After the creation process was finished is when evolution kicked in.

It's obvious to me that he was talking about God. You are looking at his statement with evolution colored glasses. I am looking at his statement knowing full well that Darwin had an excellent understanding of the Bible and even planned to become a minister. In those days, the vast majority of the people in the world were Christians. |
