Charles Darwin was a Redneck Racist Nut

“Civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate the savage races throughout the world ... The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla.” - Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man

Hello mr. Fail...

How about you actually read the ******* book instead of claiming it contains stuff it does not?

But even if Darwin was a total asshole it would not change anything about the validity of the theory of evolution and even if the theory of evolution is complete bullshit it would not provide ANY evidence whatsoever for whatever religious notions you happen to believe in.

Now if your standpoint is that you actually want to prove whatever you believe I would suggest actually finding physical evidence for it in accordance with the scientific method.

There is no need to insult me, I wasn't talking about the validity of Evolution.

I was referring to Charles Darwin being a racist, of which he most certainly was.


With savages, the weak in body or mind are soon eliminated; and those that survive commonly exhibit a vigorous state of health. We civilized men, on the other hand, do our utmost to check the process of elimination. We build asylums for the imbecile, the maimed and the sick; we institute poor-laws; and our medical men exert their utmost skill to save the life of every one to the last moment. There is reason to believe that vaccination has preserved thousands, who from a weak constitution would formerly have succumbed to small-pox. Thus the weak members of civilized societies propagate their kind. No one who has attended to the breeding of domestic animals will doubt that this must be highly injurious to the race of man. It is surprising how soon a want of care, or care wrongly directed, leads to the degeneration of a domestic race; but excepting in the case of man himself, hardly anyone is so ignorant as to allow his worst animals to breed.

The aid which we feel impelled to give to the helpless is mainly an incidental result of the instinct of sympathy, which was originally acquired as part of the social instincts, but subsequently rendered, in the manner previously indicated, more tender and more widely diffused. Nor could we check our sympathy, even at the urging of hard reason, without deterioration in the noblest part of our nature. The surgeon may harden himself whilst performing an operation, for he knows that he is acting for the good of his patient; but if we were intentionally to neglect the weak and helpless, it could only be for a contingent benefit, with an (overwhelming present evil?). Hence we must bear without complaining the undoubtedly bad effects of the weak surviving and propagating their kind; but there appears to be at least one check in steady action, namely the weaker and inferior members of society not marrying so freely as the sound; and this check might be indefinitely increased, though this is more to be hoped for than expected, by the weak in body or mind refraining from marriage.

What's your point exactly? I don't get my morals from what some dude did or did not do 200 years ago even if he introduced a rather neat scientific theory... Darwin isn't some kind of Holy dude which was faultless and must thus be revered. Most of your founding fathers were slavers or people supporting slavery. Does that make their accomplishments any less?

But even that doesn't change that what you posted does not even reflect Darwins position. Hence it really is complete garbage.

It's like me quoting your post like this;

It's just silly and dishonest.

Meh just realized your NZ not American, looking at flags is apparently isn't my strong point. Still the argument holds though...

No modern Evolutionist uses Darwin's discredited theories on the Supremacy of the British race.

No sacred cows. Evolutionary theory stands on scientific experimentation.

Darwins theories on the British race have been falsified. Science has moved on from this 19th century horseshit.

Correct the ideas that people had in the 1800's regarding races within the human species have been proven largely incorrect in part thanks to the theory of evolution.

That does not however invalidate the theory of evolution, we have common ancestors with monkeys (and thus are monkeys just as snakes still are lizards) get used to it.

Just was we can't distance ourselves from Darwin being a racist.

Interesting that Darwin's racist polemics are still used by White Supremacists even today much like Hitler's Mein Kampf.
