Darwin in a Novel
Darwin had never believed in God, but he was surrounded with
people who offered worship to various gods in such varied rituals that made him
feel that people on this world are crazy. Nevertheless, he enjoyed
participating in the rituals as they were his window to different stalks of
people on a small patch of land that he was born in. Darwin’s uncle Methodius
was the first in his life who had openly declared that he was a non-believer,
an atheist. Methodius made him realize that he can open his mind to speak out
what one believes in. And yet Uncle Methodius, loved Christian music and played
it all the time on his big speakers. Darwin, knew that the beats were adorable
and that was the only interest that his uncle had in the music. The world was
opening up to him, he understood that people could be self-contradictory.
Darwin had a secretive life himself. At kindergarten, he abused
the boy next to him. He’s has never gathered a clue on how he acquired the
habit but he was a bully. And yet he had a crush on a girl in class as well.
That love story however, abruptly ended when he moved on to another school in
another corner of the town he lived in. Things turned around here the opposite
at the new school and he was at the receiving end. His sub-conscious mind registered
the fact that what you give is what you get. This later in his life makes him
realize that the Bible is not written by morons as some in the scientific
community assume, for moving and preaching against the principles that the word
of God reveals to us.
Young Darwin’s parents were both employed individuals and that
left Darwin with a lot of time with siblings. He was the youngest and the
victim of the experience-centric response of parental care. Experience of
raising the older children often mean the end of joy for the younger ones as
they get treated on assumptions rather than that of being understood for their
needs. Freedom for him was a big no as the older siblings had messed up and
landed the caretakers in trouble during their immature years. Life of his
siblings that seemed merrier at young age was found to be equally challenging
for their young minds when he talked to them as a grownup. Life in short
according to Darwin is a mixture of all elements that help an individual to
understand his neighbor. Individual’s realization of God purpose of one’s life
may be revealed very late in life and for some there’s not enough time.
Digging into the earth revealed a lot to us about life on earth
than what we would have discovered if we had only living beings to study. We
made a lot of comparisons and came with theories of evolution with the fossils
we found. Each set of generation held on to its favorite set of beliefs and yet
the next generation would come up with new thoughts. Some scientist believe
that alien technology helped people on earth build a lot of mega structure in
ancient past. If we need proof of that we would need proof of alien life and
that too aliens who are much smarter than us. If they are extinct now we need
to dig on their planets to find their fossils. Darwin’s understanding of
science evolved from being a subject of calculative measurements, to that of use
of smart equipment, to that of myth
buster outlook, to that of chemical drug healer, to that of ancient science doubter, to that of
false godly knowledge of life with very little known variables involved in it
and to the so many other things. Today for Darwin, science is just an attempt
to know Gods creation.
Darwin’s life if traversed may reveal the stories of millions on
the planet in a new light.
