1800 is not only correct but easier to remember.

For every google hit citing 1800, there are a hundred saying 1802. There are multiple revisions and dates of publication. I suspect that the 1802 edition is the one that became widely distributed, and influenced people like Darwin.

Never saw the 1902 edition. Got the 1800 edition. Paley would be an evolutionist were he alive now.
