I know you don't want to address any of this from # 24. I can't say I blame you.
Obliterating Politically Correct Orthodoxies pgs. 113-116
The full title of Darwins most famous book IS:
On the Origin of Species by means of natural Selection or the presevation of Favoured Races in the struggle for life
Darwin was a racist. It's been shown in his writings:
In, The Descent of Man he wrote:
"At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world."
He doesn't say the races of animals. He says the races of MAN.
On July 3, 1881 he wrote a letter to W. Graham (life and letters of Charles Darwin, Volume 1, 316, cited in Gertrude Himmelfarb, Darwin and the Darwinian Revolution, 1959, p.343). He wrote the following:
"The more civilized so-called caucasian races have beaten the Turkish hollow in the struggle for existence. Looking to the world at no very distant date, what an endless number of the lower races will have been eliminated by the higher civilized races throughout the world."
Darwins friend Ernst Haeckel served Adolf Hitler. Hitler loved Darwins writings. He borrowed his title Mein Kampf (my struggle) from Darwins subtitle the preservation of Favoured Races in the struggle for life.
Stalin, who murdered millions loved Darwins writings. The book Landmarks in the life of Stalin by Emelian Yaroslavsky, documents a conversation between Stalin and one of his ecclesiastical school classmates, wherein Stalin says, "I'll lend you a book to read; it will show you that the world and all living things are quite different from what you imagine, and all this talk about God is sheer nonsense."
His classmate said:
"What book is that ?"
Stalin replied:
"Darwin. You must read it."
Like Stalin and Hitler, you'll dismiss anything with any connotation of religion. But, you'll accept a theory spawned by an early racist.
Fascinating.
