[Stultis]

Thanks! In fact I've posted that same link here a few times, although I only recently discovered this. For lurkers: The link demonstrates that the oft repeated claim that Marx wrote to Darwin asking if he (Marx) could dedicate Das Kapital to him (Darwin) is false, based on misfiled correspondence.

That link is about as lame as it gets.

There's a far more definitive source than a few evo soundbites frought with an evo agenda.

The entire collection of Marx's letters and works are at:
http://marxists.org

whoda thunkit!

Here's more to refute your lame defense of marxism.

Worse. Your own link shoots you down with this:

"Marx genuinely admired Darwin's Origin, despite its crude English style. He even sent Darwin a personally inscribed copy of the recently published second edition of Das Kapital in 1873."

No proof that Marx embraces evolution there!
