Page 49 - Charles Darwin and His Magic Barre‪l

Later, Darwin and his friend met again to discuss

the experiment.

Friend: What do
you say, Charles?
You see for your-

self that your ex-
periment was a
failure. You must

have abandoned
your ideas by
now.

Darwin: No. My
ideas have not

changed. No mat-
ter what you say,
I still believe that I can form living things from
inanimate matter.

Friend: You’re wrong. Life requires a particu-

lar creation. Nothing comes into being by
chance.
Darwin: I think that everything comes into

being by chance. Let’s wait and see.
After this conversation, Darwin and his friend left

each other. Many years passed, and Darwin died.
