Since no one knows for sure except Darwin and maybe Lady Hope, it is equally "historical fact" whether this happened or not, it all depends who's word you want to take.
Wow.
Just... wow. I need to look at that again.

You believe that "historical facts" are in some way a matter of interpretation?
It shouldn't surprise me that you have a rather fluid definition of the word "fact", I guess. What surprises me is that you'd actually admit that.

Did not say that either. Plese quit replacing my words with you conclusions.
Even if I gave that to you (and I don't), go back to the logical example Vade uses against me right in this thread.
No!, and since you ignored this in your response, here it is again to reply to.

But since Darwin never made public his faith re awakened nor his recantation of evo, no one will ever know for sure. This insistence that because his family was not aware of this may not be evidence of anything other than they were not aware of everything that Darwin took in his heart to the grave with him. The truth is no one will know on this issue.
By their own logic and what constitutes evidence I will say
1. Evo never happened
or
2. There is a much greater case to be made that Darwin recanted to Lady Hope than there ever was for evo to have happened.

As far as logical failure, everything you throw at me I can come back tenfold against your side. You know its true, or maybe you don't. I think perhaps you guys don't see how far all over the map you are, how much you contradict yourself. What looks like victories to you are not.
