Dr. Bergman has 800 publications appearing in 12 languages, including more than 30 books and monographs on topics ranging from mental health and religious discrimination to vestigial organs, psychology and religious cults.

Charles Darwin, the icon of evolution, is said to have exhibited both mental health problems and overt racism. He had a very low opinion of women, plagiarized freely in developing his theory of evolution, and as a child, he enjoyed the sadistic killing of animals with any handy weapon, including hammers.
Was Darwin’s theory of evolution actually “theological” in the sense that he developed evolution to replace the concept of God? Does Darwinism demand atheism? Jim Schneider flushes out these and other questions and gets to the truth about Darwin’s “skeletons” as he interviews creation scientist Jerry Bergman, Ph.D., author of the book: The Dark Side of Charles Darwin: A Critical Analysis of an Icon of Science.
