Darwin and Genesis

The Bible describes the creation of mankind by telling a narrative, while Darwin uses scientific language and descriptions. The creation story in Genesis has a rythmic pattern, and multiple paragraphs start with the words "And God said."  This creates easy transitions between paragraphs.  Imagery is extensively used in Genesis.  Darwin's words are much more descriptive, and the tone is more serious.  He describes his beliefs, tries to convince people of the existence of evolution.  Darwin also relates his work to the bible, and says evolution does not contradict with the bible.  The rhythm in Darwin's work does not flow as smoothly.  These differences exist because the bible tells a story while Darwin merely states observations.
