"'You speak of finding a flaw in my hypothesis,' Darwin rallied him, `& this shows you do not understand its nature. It is a mere rag of an hypothesis with as many flaw & holes as sound parts.' But `I can carry in it my fruit to market for a short distance over a gentle road; not I fear that you will give the poor rag such a devil of a shake that it will fall all to atoms; & a poor rag is better than nothing to carry one's fruit to market in.'" Newton was pretty cocksure of his hypothesis, but that didn't prevent it from being superceded by Einsteinian hypothesis--a lesson most modern scientists have taken to heart. So whose displaying the more appropriately modest scientific attitude here? Einstein, or Darwin?
At least effdot quoted the whole statement, indicating that Darwin believed in his hypothesis. Unlike some "Christian" websites.
