Here you are attributing motives to Darwin which is a very unscientific thing to do. But then it seems people do that sort of thing all the time nowadays....
Somehow, I just don't think it's right, or appropriate in a scientific discussion.
JMHO, FWIW
Did you read the post? Darwin was ashamed of himself for “truckling to public opinion” because he substituted the word “creator” for what he really meant, which was “appeared.” What do you call it when a person deliberately says one thing, when they really mean something entirely different?
