The ones who deny evolution don’t understand that you can have evolution and god at the same time. Problem is that these people (not all religious people ofc) want their book of fairy tales to be true not understanding (or not wanting to understand) that those events aren’t real.
If I remember right, Darwin wasn’t anti-religion and was in fact a constant church goer. So when I recently saw a bumper sticker showing Darwin’s gravestone and stating “Guess Darwin found out he was WRONG,” it left me utterly scratching my head.
Darwin didn’t say anything about god not existing or that evolution meant that god didn’t exist. For him, I’m sure, evolution was the process god himself designed to propogate life forms and diversity on earth. I don’t think religion and evolution have to be in competition with each other.
From what I heard he became agnostic near the end of his life, not sure is it true but even if it is that happened long after he wrote Origin of spicies.
