I'll recant, I believed he did the experiment and took the photo, but don't throw me into the creationoid Oblivion, some of those people are nuts.

I did a little research to see if Darwin could have taken the peppered moth photos if he tried and read this:

"However, not all people welcomed this exciting invention; some pundits viewed in quite sinister terms. A newspaper report in the Leipzig City Advertiser stated:

"The wish to capture evanescent reflections is not only impossible... but the mere desire alone, the will to do so, is blasphemy. God created man in His own image, and no man- made machine may fix the image of God. Is it possible that God should have abandoned His eternal principles, and allowed a Frenchman... to give to the world an invention of the Devil?"

***somehow, I think that's perfect in this forum.

You are hoisted out of babbling creationoid oblivion. No true creationoid ever takes back an erronious statement. They just keep digging deeper.
