Atheists' attempts to destroy faith were magnified in the 19th century, as philosophers such as [[Comte]] and [[Marx]] attempted to describe religion's downfall as inevitable, while [[Darwin]] and [[Freud]] attempted to twist science to support [[atheism]] in a [[pseudoscience|pseudoscientific]] fashion. (Note that the vast majority of scientists remained Christian throughout the 18th-20th centuries.)
