Abstract

The objections to evolution were always more philosophical than scientific, in particular the needed explanation of the design‐like nature of organisms. Charles Darwin supplied the answer with his mechanism of natural selection. There are still major issues about the relationship of Darwinism to religion, to Christianity specifically. These include the problem of miracles, the problem of evil, and the needed progress to produce humankind. The issues continue to be more philosophical than scientific.
