Did Darwin become a Christian on his deathbed?

Although the author leaves it to the reader to decide, the evidence is overwhelming that Lady Hope was the sole witness to Darwins' recanting his evolution theory, repentance and back into the arms of Jesus.

Alleluja!

And her own words were that he didn't recant. Why are you STILL lying about this? Please explain to us WHY Darwin would have recanted to HER, and not to his wife who worried about his soul? Please explain how this can be logical.

Overwhelming evidence, eh? What about this paragraph?

Her conversation with Darwin
Qhat is impressive in her account is the restraint of what they discussed - as Moore acknowledges (p55),. Had she wanted to cause a sensation, she would have claimed that Darwin was truly "converted" and written a vivid account of his testimony. In fact, she merely records his views on Hebrews an delicately raises the subject of Darwin's evolution contradicting Genesis There is no claim of any conversion, but simply a record of Darwin's renewed interest in the Christian faith.

Amazing. You claimed that it is a matter of "historical fact" that Darwin recanted on his deathbed. You even claimed that his own children testified to that fact. Now, in the face of overwhelming evidence against your claim, the best substantiation you can offer is an article that concludes with "We would have liked to conclude that, on balance, her account is truthful, but there is also much against it, and we cannot come to a firm conclusion either way."

So the best evidence that you can offer for your claim that it is a "historical fact" that Darwin recanted on his deathbed is an article that concludes that it cannot be known.

Looks like I was right: you are a shameless, brazen liar.

The evidence is overwhelming that the only support lies in the inconsistent testimony of the Widow Denny, who is revealed as an unreliable narratior, who was less than scrupulous in honesty and probity.
