“To my mind it accords better with what we know of the laws
impressed on matter by the Creator, that the production and extinction of the
past and present inhabitants of the world should have been due to secondary
causes, like those determining the birth and death of the individual”. It is
interesting to here Darwin discuss a “creator” because many people view Darwin as
an atheist who proved one of the most controversial issues pertaining to both
life and religion ever. Darwin was religious and his wife even more than him;
therefore, Darwin did not try and disprove creationism but instead he tried to
support the idea of a divine creator because in his mind there must have been a
creator in order to set evolution in motion.
