This talk will look at the relationship between evolution and Christianity, from the earliest times, through the work of Charles Darwin, and down to the present, ending with some comments on both the prominent Darwinian atheists like Richard Dawkins, as well as the supporters of so-called Intelligent Design. The main theme of the lecture is that Darwinism is a child of Christianity, and that as is usual in parent-children relationships, there is both love and tension. I argue that Darwin's own work stemmed from his religious background rather than despite it, that his supporter T H Huxley had very different ends in view making of evolution a secular religion, and that once the history is understood, as is usual with evolutionary matters, the present is much easier to understand.
