Darwin’s Darkest Hour<\/p>\n
This movie is a dram that shows the greatest personal crisis of Charles Darwin on his decision to publicize his evolution theory. His point of making the decision is seen as a crisis since he has no clear idea about the public reaction by making the theory public having spent years refining the theory ideas as well as the great efforts he spent in writing about the origin of species (Goldsmith). Darwin wishes to have his efforts and ideas to go public, but he is bothered by a conflict between religious values of the orthodox religion. <\/p>\n
These religious values should not have been a source of conflict that would make Darwin shy off from publishing his theory. Instead of waiting for the same ideas to be published by another person in another version, he would have done it without hesitation. His final decision to publish his work was caused by Alfred Wallace when Darwin learned that Wallace was about to sell ideas similar to his own (Schafersman). This case was absurd to Darwin, and he could have avoided it. <\/p>\n
Notably, most people take advantage of the efforts established by others and Darwin should not have waited until a threat was posed to his hard work. It is unreasonable to see that the initial delays were in attempt avoid the church fury. His wife religious background was strongly embedded to the church (Goldsmith). He should have considered that if his life cared for him, she would not base their relationship to the church foundations. His fear of creating a rift with his wife was reasonable, but it should not have generated that much heat. As long as evolution existed, and it could be proven by scientific facts, Darwin should not have seen the church as a threat to his discoveries. This theory has shaped a great deal in science, and the Darwin\u2019s Darkest Hour portrays the challenges facing the publication of the theory (Schafersman). <\/p>\n
