We’ve been reading Charles Darwin all wrong

It's more than a claim, Warden.

A lot more.

In fact, you'd better get it right on the test, or you won't make the dean's list.

It's taught in every $275.00 King James McGraw-Hill science textbook on earth.

In short, it's basic doctrine.

... okay, now I'm confused. You are still referring to Romans 1:22, right?

No, you're just not making sense. I'm British, we don't have James McGraw Hill and your weird desire to turn it into a bible of it's own is weird.

Weird and disingenuous -- but once you realize that AV seldom debates in good faith, it becomes typical as well.

Romans 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

Translation: Professing themselves to be [sapiens], they became [atheists],

In other words, Paul is saying that embracing evolution can lead to atheism.

How many people do you know that have said, "I used to be a Christian, until I started asking question about where we came from"?
I used to believe in G-d. Then I learned about evolution and….wait, I still believe in G-d!

And since there has never been a "$275.00 King James McGraw-Hill science textbook" published, or even written... you are still raving from an entirely imaginary book. A book that exists only in your fevered fantasy

As with all creationist arguments ( creoguments, for short).
They dont know enough to say anything real, so, they
make things up.

Give us one fact from it.
Darwin himself expressed deep doubts about his own speculations and suppositions. If we look at Darwin's work and its inaccuracies from a logical perspective. We will discover the often ignored reasoning behind his own abandonment of some of the core mechanisms of evolution later in his life, though they remain unchallenged pillars of unquestioning science today. This informative and easy-to-read study boldly declares the powerful truth that only biblical creation can explain.

Also you could (should you be inclined to) look up 'Cambria explosion'

Talk about misreading!
Even if any or all you say about darwin were true, the theory has stood the test of time.
No contrary data exists. You nor anyone can offer any. You sure didnt even try.

Its " Cambrian" not " Cambria".

Guaranteed i am far better informed re the topic than you.

The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.
That’s an interesting claim the Bible makes. Is there any evidence to support it?

You have been misled about Darwin's beliefs, the logical basis for the mechanisms of evolution and how unchallenged the theory of evolution is.

Also you could (should you be inclined to) look up 'Cambria explosion'

The Cambrian explosion represents tens of millions of years of increased diversity of life with structures similar to bones and shells.

It does not represent the first evidence of life and almost nothing present would be recognisable as a modern life form.

I just take it as speaking for the Christian love toward those
who dont share their beliefs.
Granted, i'm better informed on The Scriptures than you :)

Then you should know the bible is not a source for any info
on auto mechanics or science.
One looks foolish holding forth as if they know more than
any scientist on earth, based on their opinion of what the bible
is all about.
Likewise if one used mass spec and xray crystallography to try to
prove God does not exist.

Then it's a good thing that the theory of evolution does not end with Darwin, since there is more evidence for evolution now than there was when Darwin wrote On The Origin of Species.

Also, the Cambrian explosion, as has been pointed out, is a period of several million years. AKA, A LONG period of time, and is not the slam dunk against the theory of evolution that some people think it is.
