***I just downloaded the 6th (and final during his lifetime) edition from Project Gutenberg***
Perhaps someone else here could confirm this, Tom, but I believe that after the first edition, Darwin was pressured into adding some strangely out of place words at the start of the book: on the lines that evolution is "guided by the Creator".
This line, I believe, appears in all editions from the second onwards and is oft-quoted by the religiously-minded who feel strongly enough to go along with the theory of evolution only up to a point. Neil
