Aubrey Moore
Encyclopedia
Aubrey Lackington Moore was one of the first Christian
Darwinians
. He has been described as "the clergyman who more than any other man was responsible for breaking down the antagonisms towards Evolution then widely felt in the English Church".
Moore argued that Darwinism was not in conflict with Christianity. He differed from other religious figures at the time by accepting the theory of natural selection, incorporating it into his Christian beliefs as merely the way God worked.
He was curator of the Botanical Gardens in England in 1887.
He wrote two books: Science and Faith (1889) and Essays Scientific and Philosophical (1890), and was a contributor to Lux Mundi
(1889).
