> dhw: But you still refuse to condemn those who misrepresent his theory as an atheistic attempt to explain the origin of life.-I admit that Darwin appears to have been an agnostic. His theory of chance evolution has provided ammunition for atheists. There is no misrepresentation. They are using his theory for their purposes. Did Darwin ever say exactly what his firm beliefs were in his letters, which I have not reviewed?
