You have to wonder if he is for Reparations as well.

Since we are supposed to feel guilty that Darwin was only human and not morally above his fellow man of the time, most of whom thought that the other races were lesser and that women were for the pleasure and fortitude of men.

So, if we are supposed to feel guilty about an attitude that was prevalent of Darwins time, then he therefore must feel guilty about slavery as well.

Slavery was kosher back in those times as well, so if we are supposed to feel guilty about Darwin, then he should feel guilty about slavery and open his pocketbook to every descendant of slaves in the US, if of course he wishes to be consistent and not a hypocrite.

Yeah, right..... Like he is actually going to be consistent, and NOT a hypocrite, but I am beginning to think that "hypocrite" is a moniker that he wears PROUDLY.

Seems to me that at the same time that Darwin was spewing his racist rants in the US more than half a million WHITE MEN were dying to free blacks from oppression. So much for your Clintonian 'everybody does it' excuse for immorality and incitement to mass murder. Oh yes, as I remember, another half million Americans died in WWII to stop the mass murders incited by your buddy Darwin.

HE'S A DEAD WHITE EUROPEAN MALE, and YES you ARE supposed to feel guilty! ALS's friends at the Progressive Sociology Network can help if you're having trouble feeling the guilt.
