Many people, notably Richard Dawkins, author of *The God Delusion,* argue –
or are taken to argue – that the chief effect of *The Origin of Species* by
Charles Darwin was to finish off Christianity. I shall argue that the story
is more complex – and interesting – than this. Darwin’s chief achievement
was to show how the design-like nature of organisms – the hand, the eye,
the heart – can be explained by unbroken law, without direct need of a
reference to a Designer, a deity like the Demiurge in Plato’s Timaeus.
Having offered up such an explanation, the way was opened for sound
non-belief, although almost always non-believers – agnostics and atheists –
take their stance less on science and more on grounds of theology and
philosophy.

Üdvözlettel,
Paár Tamás
