| by Josh Kimball - Christian Post Creation, starring Paul Bettany as the world-renowned scientist, tells the story of 19th-century naturalist Charles Darwin and how his landmark work, The Origin of Species, came to light. "Darwin was an extraordinary man – warm, funny, had a very, very modern attitude in bringing up their children and adored them.
