His work remains relevant today, remember the day you discovered you descended from ape-like creatures known as <em>Homo erectus<\/em> in your science class?<\/p>\n<p>He was born in England on 12<sup>th<\/sup> February 1809 and this day is now celebrated worldwide as Darwin Day. This celebrated English man was also a naturalist who helped us understand more about the natural environment through his theory of natural selection.

Darwin grew up to be a great scientist whose works shaped scientific theories. Lincoln grew to be one of America\u2019s greatest presidents.<\/p>\n<p>Both of them strongly opposed slavery. Darwin called the practice \u201cmonstrous stain on our boasted liberty.\u201d In 1833, he wrote that, \u201cI have seen enough slavery \u2026 to be thoroughly disgusted.\u201d Lincoln was at the fore front in the war to end slavery in America, and he was successful at abolishing it.<\/p>\n<p>There are many more similarities between the two like they both loved Shakespeare, they both suffered the loss of a child, their faces appear on currency and more discussed in the book, \u201cLincoln and Darwin\u201d by James Lander.<\/p>\n<h4>2.

This greatly disappointed his father.<\/p>\n<p>However, he enrolled in Christ\u2019s College in Cambridge and graduated with a degree in arts. He became a pastor at a small church and pursed naturalism. It is said that Darwin was a lifelong autodidact, meaning he preferred self-education over the conventional methods of studying.<\/p>\n<h4>3.

During the voyage of the Beagle, he ate armadillos and agoutis. The rodents were &#8220;best meat I ever tasted,&#8221; he said.

Recognizing that plants that self-fertilized tended to be less healthy, this phenomena will greatly affect his children. It was less of a taboo to marry a relative member during his time than it is today.<\/p>\n<p>Darwin married Emma whom he had ten children with. The two were happily married for 43 years until Charles\u2019 death in 1882. They even enjoyed a strict schedule of 2 games of backgammon every night from 8:00 to 8:30 PM. Charles kept meticulous scores of the games and once even bragged to have won, \u201c2,795 games to her mere 2,490.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, their marriage also suffered great losses when three of their children died from illness and others had great health problems. For the rest of his life he was haunted by the death of his three children. He had known the dangers of having children in \u201cconsanguineous\u201d marriages.<\/p>\n<h4>6.

During his voyage aboard the Beagle he encountered different religions and cultures. He was also puzzled on how God could allow such inhumanities to happen such as slavery and poor living conditions of the natives of Tierra del Fuego.<\/p>\n<p>Darwin\u2019s breaking point came when his three children died, and he converted to being an agnostic, meaning he did not believe in the existence or the nonexistence of God or a god.

He was reluctant to publish it because he was afraid of people\u2019s reaction to the claim that they descended from apes. Also being a clergy man he knew that this notion will not be acceptable to the church. However, he was pushed to publish when British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace was about to publish a similar concept. 1,250 copies were made and sold for 15 shillings.
