这种争论对于普通老百姓或平信徒是非常无聊的--是一些别有用心的神学家和科学伪君子哗众取宠或谋图虚名的伎俩。没办法这世界本是恶人当道，好人吃亏。

其实达尔文先生一直是个基督徒，毕业于剑桥三一学院的牧师，有雄厚的神学基础。怎么会不知道自己伟大的科学理论是否与神的话语冲突呢？但在他原著中的确没有提到任何进化论与圣经矛盾的说法。这不是害怕不害怕的问题。作为英皇家学会资深科学家，他在学术界和神学界的权威在当时是无人能比的(从孟德尔的理论被埋没50多年就可看出) 。

为什么？事实很简单：进化论(EVOLUTION) 和创造论(CREATION) 本来就没有冲突。两者不是互为矛盾，而是互为补充。只要本着科学求实的态度仔细读达尔文原著的人都不难发现这点。至少能看出达尔文先生对创造论所持的肯定和合理性态度。例如在The Descent of Man结论中达尔文写到：

I am aware that the conclusions arrived at in this work will be denounced by some as highly irreligious; but he who denounces them is bound to shew why it is more irreligious to explain the origin of man as a distinct species by descent from some lower form, through the laws of variation and natural selection, than to explain the birth of the individual through the laws of ordinary reproduction. The birth both of the species and of the individual are equally parts of that grand sequence of events, which our minds refuse to accept as the result of blind chance. The understanding revolts at such a conclusion, whether or not we are able to believe that every slight variation of structure,- the union of each pair in marriage, the dissemination of each seed,- and other such events, have all been ordained for some special purpose.

又如在The Origin of Species前言中达尔文总结创造论的研究成果时写到：

The 'Philosophy of Creation' has been treated in a masterly manner by the Rev. Baden Powell, in his "Essays on the Unity of Worlds,' 1855. Nothing can be more striking than the manner in which he shows that the introduction of new species is "a regular, not a casual phenomenon,' or, as Sir John Herschel expresses it, 'a natural in contradistinction to a miraculous, process.'

只要仔细读达尔文原著，不难看出达尔文先生终生最大的科学追求和成就是“发现了神创的进化机制” 。这在他老人家原著中表达得非常清楚。可惜被后辈的沽名钓誉者利用了。而产生这种进化论(EVOLUTION) 和创造论(CREATION) 的无聊争战---这对科学和神学都是有害无益的。

最后真正追求真理，爱神，爱科学的朋友们不妨探访以下达尔文先生原著的网站。好好研究一下他老人家究竟说些什么，再作出自己的判断也不迟。
