Darwin never read any Marx. Marx sent him the book, and Darwin sent him a thank you note, in the usual Victorian florid style. The book was still in his library, uncut.

What eleni121 might not know is that in those days, books came from the printer sealed (hence "uncut"). The seal was never broken on the copy Marx sent Darwin, so we know for a fact that Darwin never wrote it.

More evidence that creationists choose to ignore....

Thanks for that tidbit of history, concerning the book that Marx sent to Darwin...the mere fact that the book was 'uncut',(the seal was never broken), and that is how the book remained in Darwins library, is very interesting..

Thanks again...
