What attitude did the great founders of modern science have about God?

The founders of modern science, such as Galileo, Pasteur, Newton and Darwin were Christians very much like the ordinary people of their times. It is only in later life that some, such as Charles Darwin, began to doubt the Church and cease to believe in God.


Why do you believe Darwin to be correct?

I already had a good grasp of geology and paleontology when I carefully read Charles Darwin's The Evolution of Species. I studied his conclusions, how he arrived at them and what methodologies he used, and was interested in his collaboration with other scientists and with breeders. I have read extensively the reviews and publications by supporters and opponents of Darwin's Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection - including a number of Creationist authors.I have absolutely no doubt that Darwin was right in his understanding of the evolution of species.

What led Darwin to doubt creationism and its assumption of unchanged species?

Answer:It needs to be said that Darwin was actually doubting a misrepresentation of the biblical account of creation which existed in his day. This included ideas such as fixity of species and separate creations 'in situ'. It thus was easy for Darwin to demolish this 'straw man' theory which did not represent what a number of creationists in his day (and today) held.Answer:In direct answer to the question, Darwin was greatly influenced by Charles Lyell's book "Principles of Geology" (given to Darwin by Captain Fitzroy immediately before he left on the Beagle voyage) in which he put forward his uniformitarian views in order to "free science from Moses." Lyell thus had an anti-biblical bias where he proposed long ages for geological features, irrespective of any evidence. Historians have thus seen that Darwin, who saw himself firstly as a geologist, was greatly influenced by the long-age views of Lyell.
