Darwin is dead, let him rest. Science or reason is forever moving on into the future.

One of my essays in my book deals with the evolutionary synthesis of the twenties when genetics was discovered and Darwinism proven. Science now understood the mechanism of heredity which Darwin never figured out.

Most scientists at the time believed religion was at last moribund, but superstition proved more stubborn because infected fanatics didn't use reason and logic to arrive at their belief system. Same thing with Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene in 1976. The renowned author thought religion would begin finally to roll back but it persists even into the new century.
