The death of Darwin is recorded by several of his contemporaries - no death bed conversion back to Christianity, no ringing endorsement of Atheism. Just a wise old man at the end of his life. See Link.

There are some urban legends that claim Darwin recanted his theory on his deathbed and converted to Christianity, but the claim is not well supported by evidence and is generally thought to be false.

Did Charles Darwin admit that evolution didn't occur?
No. There was a rumor circulating that Darwin recanted evolution on his death bed, but that rumor has no foundation or plausible evidence. And even if Darwin ever had said such a thing, it would be meaningless. Galileo recanted is heliocentric theory, under pressure from a religious group. That in no way alters the fact the earth orbits the sun, and not the other way around.

Two of Darwin's daughters (and one of his sons) died before they reached adulthood. I would guess you mean Anne Elizabeth Darwin. She died at age 10, first suffering scarlet fever at age 8 which made her weak, and then later probably contracting tuberculosis. Mary Eleanor Darwin, the other daughter that died young, passed away at only a few weeks old.

Did Darwin have a death bed conversion?
A:Charles Darwin's daughter Henrietta wrote in the Christianfor February 23, 1922, "I was present at his deathbed. . . He never recanted any of his scientific views, either then or earlier.

Was Darwin atheist?
His beliefs changed through his life; he trained as a C of E priest as a student, later in life - largely because of the death of his daughter, he lost his faith and died an agnostic.

What did Charles Darwin say in his death bed?
According to Darwin's family his last words were: I am not the least afraid to die.Note that there are a number of urban legends claiming a deathbed religious conversion and/or denial of evolution. They trace back to an individual who spoke with Darwin more than half a year before he died. They claimed Darwin was reading the bible, but they never claimed Darwin converted or denied evolution. The story got distorted over the years. Darwin's wife and children were present at his death and they all firmly deny any conversion or recantation of evolution. Darwin's wife was religious and she would have been happy if he had converted. She clearly wouldn't have lied about it.
