When you hear about Charles Darwins Evolution theory would you say, "Smart talk for a guy who married his cousin"?

Marriage to a woman not a first cousin is permissible legally and morally. There is little common gene material there. Get over Darwin. He was a great man with a somewhat mistaken theory, but he made people think.

I would say, "Darwin himself admitted that his theory was flawed."
If evolution due to random coincidence was the case, there would be an astounding number of intermediate fossils available for public scrutiny. Show me one. Please. The process of evolution is at the mercy of The One.

Yeah, plus the fact he left seminary to "develop" his ideas....He got his theories from Charles Lyle who got his views from earnce haekel who was kicked out of his own university for falsifing reports and fraudulant drawings

darwin was a very intelligent person. it is just that his most famed idea is mostly a crock.
as for cousins, if it were not a taboo, i'd have known a cousin or two....

I did not know that he married his cousin, nor do I care.
There is too much scientific evidence that we can see and touch to dismiss evolution.

Marrying cousins was quite common in those times.
I wouldn't try and be so superior -- he was obviously a lot smarter than you are :)

No I think his prefurence on who he choose to marry has no real baring on his ideas or theories.
