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

No, it doesn't.

What "Christian Geologists"? Anyway Darwin published before the treasure trove of artifacts in Palestine proving the historicity of the Bible were discovered. Kenyon sr. et all.
