Like the Darwin quote about the eye, where he says he cannot see any way for it to have evolved. Creationists point to this to make the point that even Darwin doubted his belief in evolution. The problem is, the quote is only partial, and if you place it back into its original context, you can see that Darwin was talking about possible objections to his theory, and he goes on to say that he doesn't think it is a valid one.
then he should show, that my quote was cited out of context.
