Charles Darwin did NOT have a degree in biology. Chucky (Charles Darwin) NEVER earned a degree in biology (so he's NOT a biologist). In fact, it is reported that Chuck earned either an ordinary, non-specialized Bachelor of Arts degree, or a Bachelor of Arts degree in theology from Christ's College at Cambridge University in 1831—for the express purpose of becoming an ANGLICAN PARSON (i.e. a God-fearing, Christ-serving, Bible-believing [and carrying] PREACHER).

Just because REAL biologists claim that Darwin was a biologist, that doesn't make it true. The TRUTH IS Charles Darwin dropped out of medical school at the University of Edinburg because he was averse to, or squeamish of just the sight of blood. His father then enrolled him in/sent him to Christ's College at Cambridge to become a CLERGYMAN IN THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND, which Darwin wanted to do.
These are the facts.
Again, Charles Darwin doesn't have a degree in biology, so he's not a biologist. I have seen links that claim that Darwin was a biologist. I wonder how many other people without degrees in biology today can run around claiming that they are biologists. How many? I'll tell you: NONE.
Darwin is no exception.
Besides, there are no transitional fossils.
In his book, “On the Origin of Species (or more completely, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life), published on 24 November 1859…”, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Origin_of_Species
Charles Darwin wrote,
"By the theory of natural selection all living species have been connected with the parent-species of each genus, by differences not greater than we see between the varieties of the same species at the present

day; and these parent-species, now generally extinct, have in their turn been similarly connected with more ancient species; and so on backwards, always converging to the common ancestor of each great class. SO THAT THE NUMBER OF INTERMEDIATE AND TRANSITIONAL LINKS, BETWEEN ALL LIVING AND EXTINCT SPECIES, MUST HAVE BEEN INCONCEIVABLY GREAT. BUT ASSUREDLY, IF THIS THEORY BE TRUE, SUCH HAVE LIVED UPON THIS EARTH.” -- Charles Darwin, 1859, Chapter 9 "On the Imperfection of the Geological Record", On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.

pends on the very process of natural selection, through which new varieties continually take the places of and exterminate their parent-forms. But just in proportion as this process of extermination has acted on an enormous scale, so must the number of intermediate varieties, which have formerly existed on the earth, be truly enormous. WHY THEN IS NOT EVERY GEOLOGICAL FORMATION AND EVERY STRATUM FULL OF SUCH INTERMEDIATE LINKS? GEOLOGY ASSUREDLY DOES NOT REVEAL ANY SUCH FINELY GRADUATED ORGANIC CHAIN; AND THIS, PERHAPS, IS THE MOST OBVIOUS AND GRAVEST OBJECTION WHICH CAN BE URGED AGAINST MY THEORY. THE EXPLANATION LIES, AS I BELIEVE, IN THE EXTREME IMPERFECTION OF THE GEOLOGICAL RECORD.” -- Charles Darwin, 1859, Chapter 9 "On the Imperfection of the Geological Record", On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.

“P.S. -- In fact, the belief in Natural Selection must at present be grounded entirely on general considerations. (1) On its being a vera causa, from the struggle for existence; and the certain geological fact that species do somehow change. (2) From the analogy of change under domestication by man's selection. (3) And chiefly from this view connecting under an intelligible point of view a host of facts. WHEN WE DESCEND TO DETAILS, WE CAN PROVE THAT NO ONE SPECIES HAS CHANGED [I.E. WE CANNOT PROVE THAT A SINGLE SPECIES HAS CHANGED]; NOR CAN WE PROVE THAT THE SUPPOSED CHANGES ARE BENEFICIAL, WHICH IS THE GROUNDWORK OF THE THEORY. NOR CAN WE EXPLAIN WHY SOME SPECIES HAVE CHANGED AND OTHERS HAVE NOT. The latter case seems to me hardly more difficult to understand precisely and in detail than the former case of supposed change. Bronn may ask in vain, the old creationist school and the new school, why one mouse has longer ears than another mouse, and one plant more pointed leaves than another plant. . . . the fact that they have not been modified does not seem to me a difficulty of weight enough to shake a belief grounded on other arguments.”
--letter to G. Bentham, May 22, 1863 [Darwin, F., ed. 1905. The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, Vol. 1. New York: D. Appleton & Co., p. 209-10].
So Darwin himself RECOGNIZED that there are NO transitional fossils
Later on, Charles Darwin became an agnostic. I think PEER PRESSURE may have contributed to his decision to become an agnostic.
