Here is a fantastic resource for people of all faiths. It is an online compilation of Charles Darwin’s works. There are enough text and audio resources to keep one busy for months. Here’s is the description taken directly from the site:
This site currently contains more than 50,000 searchable text pages and 40,000 images of both publications and handwritten manuscripts. There is also the most comprehensive Darwin bibliography ever published and the largest manuscript catalogue ever assembled. More than 150 ancillary texts are also included, ranging from secondary reference works to contemporary reviews, obituaries, published descriptions of Darwin’s Beagle specimens and important related works for understanding Darwin’s context.
This site truly puts into perspective just how much Darwin has contributed to the world. It is insanely comprehensive and an invaluable resource. If anyone finds material that might be of interest to our readers, please share it :)

Gotta love the internet.
Another good website for Darwin’s works, along with countless other authors who wrote before copyright law:

Darwin is not evolution’s jesus. I cringe whenever somebody calls evolution ‘Darwinism’.
Darwin’s work is 150 years old, sure he got the ball rolling but the field has moved on since then. Science is not writen in stone, if it is it soon becomes dogma. He was a scientist and shouldn’t be hallowed more than any other scientist who has continued working in this field.
Sure it’s great from a knowledge and literal point of view, but that’s preaching to the choir. Darwin’s massive work isn’t going to make a creationist see reason if they’re not willing to read The Complete Idiots Guide to Evolution.
Cool:D Now when someone tells me “read the bible/quran/tao…etc” i can tell them read darwin-online.org.uk.
Seriously though, we need an update on darwin’s view before we tell religious people to “go read”
people, hasn’t anyone ever heared of Project gutenberg??
all of darwin’s books:

Woo, nice resources, everyone! Thanks!
Something I’d like to expand on. In the Lord Spanky thread, I quoted John Calvin’s Commentary on Genesis:
The quote is part of the commentary on Genesis 1:6-8.
Calvin lived in a time when the new science of astronomy was coming up with discoveries about the nature of the sky and what is in it. This suggestion, that there is water above the sky, is obviously wrong in the light of these discoveries:
In other words, “Moses”, who was believed at the time to be the author of Genesis, wasn’t talking about how the universe really is, but rather how it appeared to a person at the time. To read it as a book about science is to miss what the author is trying to say.
Similarly, in the story about God creating the “greater light” (Sun) and “lesser light” (Moon) and the stars:
Remember this was written three hundred years before Darwin. Since the earliest days of the Renaissance, science has discovered things which appear to contradict a literal reading of the Genesis story. Astronomy was the first, and Christian theologians didn’t have a problem with it. The response has always been the same: If you want science ask a scientist. If you want some lessons on how to live a Christian life, read the Bible and ask a theologian.
I picked Calvin specifically for a reason: Most “creation science”/”intelligent design”/whatever it’s called now place themselves in the Calvinist tradition. They would do well to see how he reacted to these “challenges”.
Nobody wanna hear about fairy tales.
fairy tales indeed, but unfortunatly, it is what people accept for thruth (assuming you’re talking about the above post, not darwin)
Actually, I like my fairytales to be based on real, measurable events. That is why I curl up with The Origin of Species every night.
But seriously, it doesn’t matter what anyone believes, they should at least take a look at Darwin for themselves and see what he said. I have much more respect for someone who has read Darwin (or any other author on the subject) and disagrees than someone who just disagrees without trying to understand, regardless of whether or not I agree with their position.
Superior post.Maintain the eminent work,You should definitely have to keep updating your site
