The problem is that it's a lie [that Darwin renounced everything he believed in about evolution].

The bigger problems is that even if it were true it would be irrelevant. What if Einstein renounced relativity on his deathbed? So what? What if Edison renounced the lightbulb? Again, so what? The creationoids imagine that a scientific theory is of no more substance than the mumbling of some swami, and if the swami later renounces, then it all vanishes -- a dumb joke on his foolish followers. But a scientific theory stands on its own, as an interpretation of the evidence it explains. The deathbed mental condition of the originator of the theory is not important to the quality of the theory.

That stupid remark doesn't even deserve a response except the one I'm writing right now.

Evolutionists. Will they ever get back to reality?

No of course not. It will make them accountable for their actions, and the way most live, it would be totally unbeartable on Judgement Day!!!
