That is an urban legend.

Even answersingenesis . org lists Darwin's "deathbed conversion" as an "Argument Christians Shouldn’t Use".

"He was deeply religious"

Hogwash! I

t can be argued whether Einstein was religious at all, since he didn't particularly confess to any religion in particular. Thinking that there may be a God does not make you religious. It just makes you a theist. And he most certainly was not "deeply religious"!

Hope you did a more thorough research on "Steve Jobs", Mr. Isaacson!

Or would you also have us believe that Steve became "deeply religious" on his deathbed?
