Darwin's theory inherently debunks the idea that a Christian God created man because of the book of Genesis and the whole New Testament.

Whether Victorian Christians understood that Evolution was at odds with the Bible, I have no idea or interest, really.

No, it doesn't.

It's at odds with a very narrow interpretation of the Bible. Most Christian geologists had already discarded a literal reading of Genesis decades before Darwin published.
