Yes, its an interesting phenomenon I've noticed before; they're FAR more obsessed with Darwin than evolutionists are.
I attribute it to "projection"...projecting their own concepts and beliefs on to a subject and people who study the subject they frankly don't understand at all or bother to examine closely at all.
They imagine college course where everyone has a worn thumbed-through copy of the "Origin of Species" worshipping a statue of Darwin and people getting up and reading chapters of Darwin.
They can't conceive of evolution as a living, active science with people in the field digging up evidence, moving forward by publishing their own articles, etc. instead of a religion based on adherence to a single book.
Darwin is of course greatly respected by evolutionists, but really people don't spend much time studying the Origin of Species or Darwin in detail; evolution has moved on.
