Letters show how reactions to Darwin’s work were divided. In this activity we explore whether or not Darwin’s work can be compatible with religious faith. 1 Darwin Correspondence Project www.darwinproject.ac.uk Cambridge University Library CC-BY-ND 2.00 What do I do? 1. Read through the letters, Who’s who? and answer the letter questions. 2. Discuss why Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection might have been controversial at the time. 3. Divide into 3 groups: Group 1: Make a case for why Darwin’s theory might not be acceptable to a religious faith (of your choosing). Group 2: Make a case for how Darwin’s theory might be accommodated by a religious faith. Group 3: Make a case for how Darwin’s theory might reject a religious perspective. 4.

Johnson Professor Eugene A. TeSelle Professor Richard F. Haglund Professor James P. Byrd William Buckland “The evidences afforded by the sister sciences exhibit indeed the most admirable proofs of design originally exerted at the Creation: but many who admit these proofs still doubt the continued superintendence of that intelligence, maintaining that the system of the Universe is carried on by the force of the laws originally impressed upon matter…. Such an opinion … nowhere meets with a more direct and palpable refutation, than is afforded by the subserviency of the present structure of the earth’s surface to final causes; for that structure is evidently the result of many and violent convulsions subsequent to its original formation. When therefore we perceive that the secondary causes producing these convulsions have operated at successive epochs, not blindly and at random, but with a direction to beneficial ends, we see at once the proofs of an overruling Intelligence continuing to superintend, direct, modify, and control the operation of the agents, which he originally ordained.” – The Very Reverend William Buckland (1784-1856), DD, FRS, Reader in Geology and Canon of Christ Church at the University of Oxford, President of the Geological Society of London, President of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Dean of Westminster.

  • Thomas Henry Huxley
    A Most Eminent Victorian: Thomas Henry Huxley journals.openedition.org/cve/526 Résumé Huxley coined the word agnostic to describe his own philosophical framework in part to distinguish himself from materialists, atheists, and positivists. In this paper I will elaborate on exactly what Huxley meant by agnosticism by discussing his views on the distinctions he drew between philosophy and science, science and theology, and between theology and religion. His claim that theology belonged to the realm of the intellect while religion belonged to the realm of feeling served as an important strategy in his defense of evolution. Approaching Darwin’s theory in the spirit of Goethe’s Thatige Skepsis or active skepticism, he showed that most of the “scientific” objections to evolution were at their root religiously based. Huxley maintained that the question of “man’s place in nature” should be approached independently of the question of origins, yet at the same time argued passionately and eloquently that even if humans shared a common a origin with the apes, this did not make humans any less special. Because evolution was so intertwined with the questions of belief, of morals and of ethics, and Huxley was the foremost defender of Darwin’s ideas in the English- speaking world, he was at the center of the discussions as Victorians struggled with trying to reconcile the growing gulf between science and faith.

  • 1 Thomas Henry Huxley a Liberal Education
    1 Thomas Henry Huxley A Liberal Education Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895) was a scientist, working on comparative anatomy, an ardent supporter of Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution, and a promoter of education for the masses. He took part in the famous Oxford Debate held in 1860 on Darwin’s theory, where his famous put- down of Samuel Wilberforce, the Bishop of Oxford, led to his being labeled “Darwin’s bulldog.” Huxley was also an essayist and coined the term agnosticism. A Liberal Education was published in 1868. Information readily available on the internet has not been glossed. Additions are in brackets [like this]. The business which the South London Working Men's College has undertaken is a great work; indeed, I might say, that Education, with which that college proposes to grapple, is the greatest work of all those which lie ready to a man's hand just at present. And, at length, this fact is becoming generally recognized. You cannot go anywhere without hearing a buzz of more or less confused and contradictory talk on this subject—nor can you fail to notice that, in one point at any rate, there is a very decided advance upon like discussions in former days. Nobody outside the agricultural interest now dares to say that education is a bad thing. If any representative of the once large and powerful party, which, in former days, proclaimed this opinion, still exists in the semi-fossil state, he keeps his thoughts to himself. In fact, there is a chorus of voices, almost distressing in their harmony, raised in favor of the doctrine that education is the great panacea for human troubles, and that, if the country is not shortly to go to the dogs, everybody must be educated.

  • Biographies of Geologists
    BIOGRAPHIES OF GEOLOGISTS JOHN W. WELLS AND GEORGE W. WHITE Department of Geology, Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y., and Department of Geology, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois Ten years ago, one of us published A list of books on the personalities of geology in this journal (vol. 47, 192-200, 1947). At the time it was noted that such a list was certainly incomplete, and the intervening years have shown that this was decidedly an understatement. Since then we have found many more such books, new ones have been published, and interested friends (especially J. V. Howell and F. S. Colliver) have suggested important additions. Only 78 biographies were included originally, and since some 132 more can now be added, it seems worthwhile to present a more complete listing, even though it is probably still incomplete. We have added brief comments on all the biographies except those few we have not been able to examine. In the original list, books of geologists' travels, histories of geology, and "miscellaneous" books were included. These are omitted here, only biographical and autobiographical books being admitted. Even with this restriction, choice in some instances has not been easy. As in the first list, we have included only items that have appeared as books, deliberately excluding all but a very, very few biographical notices, memoirs, and obituaries that were published in various journals. All those seriously interested in geology and its branches as a profession or avocation cannot fail to win something from the reading of their

During the first decades of the 20th century, many anthropologists who had previously adhered to a linear view of human evolution, from an ape via Pithecanthropus erectus (today Homo erectus) and Neanderthal to modern humans, began to change their outlook. A shift towards a branching model of human evolution began to take hold. Among the scientific factors motivating this trend was the insight that mammalian evolution in general was best represented by a branching tree, rather than by a straight line, and that several new fossil hominids were discovered that differed significantly in their morphology but seemed to date from about the same period.
