Darwin the racist

[Stone]

It isn't surprising to me that Richard Dawkins said "What's to say Hitler was wrong". He seems to be thinking along the same lines.

Could be, but I don't bother to read much of Dawkins other than when the fundie crowd gets riled over him and then its only for the humor of seeing you fundies make further fools of yourselves


Have you ever considered you might be a mutated meme that's not viable in a logical reality?

LOL!

Hate groups are not very tolerant of other people's views........................

How ironic you would post that.
I've found elements of fundamentalism to be quite intolerant of reality and spreaders of hate.
This thread's existence for instance.
Distortion is the tool of choice in the fundamentalist's hate chest.
But this game has been played so often across the internet, you really need a new twist to your creation science rant or you'll wind up boring your audience.

So think up something new and even more bizarre for my viewing pleasure

... reminds me of that scene from Inherit the Wind.

"Funny how two people can start off at the same point and... drift apart."

"That's evolution for ya."

I don't think anyone has shown where Darwin had any real evidence of his theory about people of color. It was obviously based on his own prejudice. How can the theory of evolution be conidered a science when it is more of a study of history than anything.

This is where you show your own ignorance of science.

The very nature of science dictates that it must stand up to peer review and if it fails, it is discarded.
Theories are refined or discarded over the years as more supporting/contradicting data is gathered and cataloged. Science isn't dependent on feelings, emotions or beliefs because if it was, it would never stand up to peer review and would be summarily discarded.

I couldn't give two shits about Darwin or his personal beliefs, it doesn't make the theory of evolution any more/less credible. The theory has been reviewed and tested by numerous experts throughout the years and stands to this day. And yes, it has been heavily modified as new evidence/data has been gathered over the years.

Well said, but let's face it, a waste of time on Big A.
He'll never stop posting the same line.
But it is a good rebuttal for the reader to consider and there....well worth the effort :thumbup

Do you believe in any sort of evolution?

God's chosen people are Jews


God is a racist

It does seem Darwin imposed his own opinion on his theory. I've never heard of how he came to his conclusion on race.

 

[All Else Failed]

and what specifically was his conclusion on race

 

[Mercury]

and what specifically was his conclusion on race

.... that the tortoise won

 

[porterjack]

Ha ha

 

[clancy]

and what specifically was his conclusion on race

You mean you don't know that? Wow.

 

[All Else Failed]

You mean you don't know that? Wow.

I want to hear it from him. Many people have differing opinions



not that yours matter, since you haven't glanced at a biology book ever

He didn't. The quote was taken out of context.

 

[mclovin1]

No it wasn't taken out of context. Darwin put dark skinned humans in the same category as animals.
