I saw this claim being brought up several times, but I never saw conclusive evidence for this claim. So my questions are - did Darwin convert to Christianity toward the end of his life, and if so did he die as a creationist? More importantly - why and how does that effect the theory of evolution and why we should believe in it?

TBH I guess we can go on historical records like his last will, eyewitness testimonies, maybe? I don't know of any of those.

To the second question: this does not effect the truth of Evolution and Creationism.

It seems like a Lady Hope says that Darwin told her that he was a christian, but his Children say otherwise, and claim that Darwin never even met her.

Timelines for one. Creationism says what 6000 years or so while evolution says billions. That's a huge discrepancy.

If you take the Bible literally it was 6 days.


BTW If I may interject. This is exactly what is the problem with Protestant denominations. They tend to read the Biblle literally exclusively.

I personally trust his family far more, tbh. Edpecially as Hope only told the story 30 years after Darwin's death, and as Darwin's family was christian.

Well who cares if Darwin died a Christian or not?

It's not like it's gonna change anything. I believe in the Evolution theory although am a Christian.

Why should Evolution fight with Religion? That's being ignorant.
