At no point did Darwin declare that life on Earth began spontaneously. His work was about how some creatures, through a process of natural selection, evolved into different creatures. Darwin at no point claimed that he was an atheist.


Many people today believe that evolution through natural selection was God's way of choosing ways for animals to survive.

The fundamentalist attitude is that God designed every plant and animal on the planet, and that each species would remain just as God created them, about six thousand years ago.


Of course, this is demonstrably inaccurate. We know from fossil records that over millions of years, most organisms changed or became extinct. 


Only morons believe that the Universe is six thousand years old.
