Darwin’s Book and how it Secularized People Charles Darwin wrote the “Origin of Species: Natural Selection” in 1859. His theory of evolution was extremely secular in that it went against Christianity’s concept of creationism. His work was distributed among the scientific world and changed the way that culture and teachings were applied, since religion was part of culture, and also learning at that time. Darwin himself was ostracized for his thoughts on the topic of the origin of species on Earth. Charles Darwin’s theory was not widely accepted until far into the twentieth century, though it had been circulated since the mid-eighteen hundreds.
