And what "connection" would that be, specifically?

Easy to answer. Marx called Darwin's theory the basis for his idea. There's a connection right there. As to the interpretation as to what he meant exactly, I cannot guess. I only know that Marx himself claimed a connection.

Fascinating quote which I had not seen before today. I look forward to looking more into it in the future.

[And what "connection" would that be, specifically? Come on, out with it. Tell us how Marx's statement actually holds water, and isn't just cheap rhetorical rationalization. We'll wait. If NOW's founder had claimed that the Bible "contains the BASIS of natural history for our views" on abortion, would you beat Christians over the head with it until the end of time, or would you examine the claim to see whether it was cheap posturing which was full of crap first?]

What a *pathetically* lame dodge... I asked you to *explain* this alleged "connection", and you just repeated "Marx says so!" again without explaining or examining it in the least.

Look, if you're unable to support the implication you've been making all day, just be honorable enough to retract it. Don't keep dodging when people call you on it.
