==Charles Darwin and the Cult of Personality==
+
Darwin was a racist had a long funny beard and married his cousin. The only thing that atheist/freethinkers/other groups that aren't theistic like about him is the fact that he was smart to say otherwise is to lie. This paragraph was written by an atheist I neither revere Darwin nor have a picture of him on my wall I just read his books realy how much republicans are willing to lie is staggering at least.

There is a cult of personality and type of religiousity currently surrounding Charles Darwin. [[Stephen Jay Gould]] wrote the following in 1978: ""... all theories [of natural selection] cite God in their support, and ... Darwin comes close to this status among evolutionary biologists ...".<ref>http://www.bradburyac.mistral.co.uk/dar1.html</ref> In 2002, Michael White similarly wrote: "Of course today, for biologists, Darwin is second only to God, and for many he may rank still higher."<ref>http://www.bradburyac.mistral.co.uk/dar1.html</ref>
