Charles Darwin letter repudiating the Bible heads to auction
Darwin’s reply, penned on 24 November 1880 – exactly 21 years after the publication of On the Origin of Species – was blunt:
Dear Sir,
I am sorry to have to inform you that I do not believe in the Bible as a divine revelation & therefore not in Jesus Christ as the son of God.
Yours faithfully
Ch. Darwin
That letter is headed to auction at Bonhams on 21 September in New York, where it is expected to fetch $70,000-$90,000.
perhaps rand paul's pac could buy it and burn it!
