Origin of species Quote by David Grann
““Darwin’s theory, laid out in On the Origin of Species in 1859, suggested that people and apes shared a common ancestor, and, coupled with recent discoveries of fossils revealing that humans had been on earth far longer than the Bible stated, helped irrevocably to sever anthropology from theology.””
![“When it was first said that the sun stood still and world turned round, the common sense of mankind declared the doctrine false; but the old saying of Vox populi, vox Dei [the voice of the people is the voice of God], as every philosopher knows, cannot be trusted in science.” quote by Charles Darwin](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5f6/charles-darwin-507_agnosticism_when-it-was-first-said-that-the-sun-stoo_226722.jpg)
