What Is Darwinism?

""What is Darwinism?"" is a book written by Charles Hodge, a prominent American theologian and professor of theology at Princeton University. The book was first published in 1874, in response to the growing popularity of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. In this book, Hodge examines the scientific and philosophical implications of Darwin's theory, as well as its impact on religious beliefs. He argues that Darwinism is not only scientifically flawed, but also morally and spiritually dangerous. Hodge asserts that the theory of evolution undermines the concept of divine creation and the existence of a benevolent God, and leads to a nihilistic worldview devoid of meaning and purpose.Hodge's critique of Darwinism is based on his understanding of traditional Christian theology, which he believes provides a more coherent and satisfying explanation of the natural world and human existence. He also challenges the assumptions and methods of Darwinian science, arguing that it relies too heavily on speculation and conjecture, and fails to account for the complexity and diversity of life.Despite its age, ""What is Darwinism?"" remains a significant work in the history of science and religion, and continues to be studied and debated by scholars and theologians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
