¥For
nearly a century, a story has circulated in various tracts and books that Charles Darwin became a Christian late in his life.
¥According
to the story, a Christian English woman, Lady
Hope, visited Darwin and found him reading his
Bible enthusiastically.
¥When
asked about his theory of evolution, Darwin is
reported to have said these were his unformed ideas
as a young man and that people had made a
religion out of them.
