Answer :
Darwin's theory was not accepted because it conflicts with their religious beliefs about divine creation.
Darwin's theory proposed that evolution occurs because of a phenomenon called natural selection. In the theory of natural selection, organisms produce more offspring than are able to survive in their environment.
There are three main reasons for non acceptance of Darwin's theory, firstly, the 1800s when Charles Darwin lived was a deeply religious time and the idea of evolution challenged the idea of God creating life on Earth. Secondly, not much evidence had been discovered at the time (e.g. fossils and differences/similarities in geology) to convince many other scientists of the theory's validity. Lastly, technology was limited in comparison to today, the idea and proof of genes, variation and inheritance was not known until several decades after Darwin's theory was published.
