Why wasn’t this covered when they brought up Charles Darwin through my public school education! Isn’t it odd that so many celebrate someone so morally bankrupt? Examples of Charles Darwins reprehensible racism: “At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace throughout the world the savage races” - Descent of Man Chap VI P. 201 “If a naturalist, who had never before seen such beings, were to compare a Negro, Hottentot, Australian, or Mongolian, he would at once perceive that they differed in a multitude of characters, some of slight and some of considerable importance. On inquiry he would find that they were adapted to live under widely different climates, and that they differed somewhat in bodily constitution and mental disposition” P. 217 Some savage races, such as the Australians, are not exposed to more diversified conditions than are many species which have very wide ranges. “Judging from the hideous ornaments and the equally hideous music admired by most savages,” “Most savages are utterly indifferent to the sufferings of strangers, or even delight in witnessing them.” P. 94 ts, for both relate at first exclusively to the community. The chief causes of the low morality of savages, as judged by our standard, are, firstly, the confinement of sympathy to the same tribe. Secondly, insufficient powers of reasoning, so that the bearing of many virtues, especially of the self-regarding virtues, on the general welfare of the tribe is not recognised. Savages, for instance, fail to trace the multiplied evils consequent on a want of temperance, chastity, &c. And, thirdly, weak power of self-command; for this power has not been strengthened through long-continued, perhaps inherited, habit, instruction and religion. No doubt the difference in this respect is enormous, even if we compare the mind of one of the lowest savages, who has no words to express any number higher than four, and who uses no abstract terms for the commonest objects or affections,1 with that of the most highly organised ape. It should be observed that the mammalian forms which inhabit the several zoological provinces, do not differ from each other in the same degree; so that it can hardly be considered as an anomaly that the Negro differs more, and the American much less, from the other races of man than do the mammals of the same continents from those of the other provinces. Man, it may be added, does not appear to have aboriginally inhabited any oceanic island; and in this respect he resembles the other members of Ms class. Nor is the difference slight in moral disposition between a barbarian, such as the man described by the old navigator Byron, who dashed his child on the rocks for dropping a basket of sea-urchins, and a Howard or Clarkson; and in intellect, between a savage who does not use any abstract terms, and a Newton or Shakspeare. Differences of this kind between the highest men of the highest races and the lowest savages, are connected by the finest gradations A certain amount of absorption of mulattoes into negroes must always be in progress; and this would lead to an apparent diminution of the former. The inferior vitality of mulattoes is spoken of in a trustworthy work12 as a well-known phenomenon;

@@ji8044The racist quotes by Charles Darwin featured in the video are from a book we know he wrote : Descent of Man. Are you defending his racism?

I have debated Atheist's on this all the time, but they always deflect or deny it. Then talk about the specialized breeding of African slaves in many countries. They will just shut down or call you a racist. Then talk about how evolution is what was the background for many eugenics, including Hitler and Margret Sanger. Charles Darwins cousin is the one who coined the term eugenics.

Indeed this is a topic I’ll get into next week! Regardless of what they say, the quotes in this video clearly illustrate that their hero Charles Darwin was a racist who believed blacks would be extinct through the Darwinian struggle for existence

Interesting how much of what we see in our society is a result of people applying Darwinism and they have no problem with that. Yet, when it comes to slavery as shown in the bible, they take such issue with it. Why is that?

Been saying this for years. Hitler was a big Darwinist.
