What if Darwin renounced his theory before his deathbed, SO WHAT? Does it say anything?

Answer 1

From Common Lies Christians Tell - Darwin recanted on his deathbed.

This is completely fabricated and has no foundation in truth whatsoever. A woman named “Lady Hope” spoke to a church group shortly after the death of Charles Darwin. She claimed that she was at Darwin’s bedside on the day of his death. She also claimed that Darwin recanted on evolution and accepted Jesus on his deathbed. Her claims are not only unsupported, but are directly opposed by Darwin’s daughter, Henrietta. Henrietta stated “I was present at his deathbed, Lady Hope was not present during his last illness, or any illness. I believe he never even saw her, but in any case she had no influence over him in any department of thought or belief. My father never recanted any of his scientific views, either then or earlier. I am upset that the U.S. Christians have fabricated this conversion nonsense. The whole story has no foundation whatever.” February 23, 1922

You know the person who made up that whopper had no faith in their own faith or they would not feel the need to lie about it and it's acceptance! I'm also certain that many christians would agree that if you lie about your faith, you're just ticking off your god.

Answer 2

Darwin on no account renounced his concept. it seems there are some people who desire to work out him as a heretic and for this reason persist in believing the fiction that he 'recanted' on his deathbed. in certainty Darwin became a Christian for many of his existence, even for quite some the time he carried out his scientific examine, and although he grew to grow to be agnostic in later existence, this became as a consequence of the dying of his daughter and not something to do along with his naturalist artwork.

Answer 3

He didn't accept Jesus or recant evolution.

He did, near the end of his life (not deathbed), grant that creation +(then) evolution was a possibility.

Remember that the dominant theory on the origin of species before Darwin's work was 'Special Creationism' (wiki it).

Answer 4

The Darwin theory remains just a theory, not a fact.

I believe that the Darwin theory does not apply to humans because we are the only thinking creatures that alter the environment to suit ourselves, rather than evolve to adapt to the environment.

Answer 5

I don't know whether or not Darwin recanted on his deathbed. That irrelevant. Evolution is nonsense either way.

Answer 6

Actually, there is very little evidence that he did renounce his theory. But you make a valid point.

Answer 7

Nope. Just the product of living in a culture where a fear-based religion is the most prominent one.

Answer 8

Wouldn't mean a thing. Science has demonstrated evolultion.

Answer 9

if you renounced your beliefs before your deathbed, so what??? .....right?

Answer 10

It would mean he came to his senses and he would go to heaven
