The text of the Genesis and Darwin himself are both different in their tones. Genesis illustrates God listing short commands. It is made up of very choppy sentences, in a more simplistic manner than the text of Darwin. God's power and dominance is conveyed through the simple commands making up Genesis, as every sentence also begins with the word "let." In genesis, there is no question of God's commands, they are the answers. These commands and language confirm God's authority as the creator of the entire world. On the other hand, Darwin's writing is much more complex than that of Genesis. Darwin explores his ideas through a much more scientific approach, and mosty likely attracts intellectual readers more often. He displays his idea of natural selection and the survival of the fittest, and provides readers with a scientific take on evolution and the creation of our world. I personally enjed reading Genesis much more than the Darwin piece, because it was a much easier read and i didnt get lost at all. Darwin's writing is very complex and scientific and can be boring at times. The list of God's commands in Genesis go much quicker than the writing of Darwin.
