Could be. The Christians hate Darwin because he was smarter than them.

That's ancillary.

Darwin pretty emphatically demonstrated that the Garden of Eden is
pure myth, and that Adam and Eve never existed.

If Adam and Eve never existed, then there wasn't any Original Sin.

If there wasn't any Original Sin, then there's nothing for Jesus
to forgive, and therefore no reason for him to have come in the
first place to offer salvation.

And, if Jesus never existed, then why the fuck are they
worshiping him?

Darwin toppled the first domino in the chain that leads to the
absurdity of the most fundamental possible Christian principle.

That only applies to the literalist Christians, of course -- but
they're the only ones who hate Darwin, for the most part, so
that's okay.

Cheers,

Some people will hate for no reason at all (I dare say I detect a
drought of love for Christians in these forums). However, personally
I have no ill will towards Mr Darwin. Personally, I am able to
disagree with someone without becoming emotionally involved in that
disagreement.

Yet another Liar-for-Jesus intentionally misunderstanding the
simple definitions of small words.

Here's a clue for you: the evidence supporting the Theory of
Evolution by Natural Selection is orders of magnitude more solid
than the Theory of Gravity.

If you don't believe me, there are two simple experiments you can
perform:

A) Get sick.

2) Take a long walk off a short pier.
