Look Warty, I quoted Darwin exactly - he said "Inferior Races"

No, no he didn't. The word 'inferior' does not appear anywhere within the text that you quoted from Darwin. I was wondering how you'd derived such an incorrect conclusion about Darwin's meaning, and now I understand: you didn't even read what he wrote. You probably just copied it verbatim out of some creationist website and didn't bother to analyze anything but the website's dishonest conclusions.

Really, you creationists wouldn't look nearly so bad if you didn't lie so blatantly.

Here ya go JACK:

'At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time, the anthropomorphous apes. . . will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the Negro or Australian and the gorilla. ... It has often been said ... that man can resist with impunity the greatest diversities of climate and other changes; but this is true only of the civilized races. Man in his wild condition seems to be in this respect almost as susceptible as his nearest allies, the anthropoid apes, which have never yet survived long, when removed from their native country.'

There is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

Both of these quotes are from Chucky Darwin.

So who's the liar now, eh slick?
