Huh- I’ll add that to my list of books to check out. Thanks.

While we’re discussing Newton, however, I had a chance to speak to a historian on the subject of Newton and evolution, since so many like to toss him out on these threads as a creationist. The historian agreed that, had Newton had the opportunity to review Darwin’s work, it was likely he’d have supported evolution as he was a dedicated man of science. Of course, we’ll never know, but it’s very disingenuous of creationists on these threads to try to claim Newton as one of their own.

Newton lived about a century before Darwin. It’s like saying, did Beethoven like the Beatles.
