Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
In Christian ... and in Judaic symbolism, it is said that man ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil and as a consequence was banished from Eden. This is considered a fall, but esoterically it is not considered so. - David Spangler

Darwin and Galton Attend Séance.
Along with many other prominent thinkers of the time Darwin and Frances Galton (founder of eugenics) attend a Séance. Many people hold Darwin up as on of the fathers of current day science, yet around 15 years after Darwin publishes origin of the species he would publicly attend with a group of men trying to talk to dead people. One article does state that Darwin said it was ’all imposture’, yet the quote is very brief.

Other attendees: Author George Eliot, philologist F. W. H. Myers (who was so enthused by this experience he founded the Society of Psychical Research a few years later).
