X-Message-Number: 4604 Date: Mon, 3 Jul 1995 22:59:24 -0700 From: John K Clark <> Subject: SCI.CRYONICS Darwin on Religion -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- I found an interesting quote by Darwin about religion, no not mike, the other one, Charles Darwin. In spite of the objections of his very religious, but loving wife, he says in his 1876 autobiography : "Disbelief crept over me at a very slow rate but at last was complete. The rate was so slow that I felt no distress, and have never since doubted even for a single second that my conclusion was correct. I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so the plain language of the text seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, Brother and almost all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished. And this is a damnable doctrine."
