It is also generally supposed that the Church flew into an unnecessary panic over the attempts of innocent and disinterested scientists to understand the secrets of the world. Nothing could be further from the truth. In the closing decades of the nineteenth century the Christian faith was the object of the unremitting, skillful, and malevolent attacks of enemies who wished for nothing more ardently than the total disappearance of that faith from the earth. Of such attacks Darwin himself must be declared wholly innocent; but what is true of Darwin is very far from being true of all his disciples. - Stephen Neill, Anglicanism pg 263
