"He" who?
Thank you for this link -- a quick perusal showed it worthy to be added to my list of websites to check out. It appeared to be a credible Christian site.
I'm assuming you sent me this "memo" because I mentioned that Darwin once said he didn't want to murder God as well as the 2nd law of thermo issue. I'm only able to say that I got my info from Colson's book ("How Now Shall We Live?"), which quoted Time magazine as attributing this statement to Darwin. The info I have shows that the Time quote was footnoted, but I no longer have a copy of Colson's book. Eventually, I'll get another copy and you can be sure I'll look at the footnote. For the moment, I don't see this statement attributed to Darwin as "recanting." I think it's within the realm of reason that he would make such a statement (in any number of contexts) without refuting his own scientific beliefs.
The 2nd Law of Thermo is another story and the most honest response is that I do not have enough knowledge to go into whether it was operational before or after the Fall (or was that the flood? See!). I will always keep this question in mind in my readings and research.
Again, thanks for the link.

I hope you do examine that AiG link. It also covers the 2nd LoT, the "Why are there still monkeys?" question, and a host of other arguments that, quite frankly, the FR old-timers (and also Vade) are getting tired of putting to bed.
