"As you keep posting, metaphysics isn't about the supernatural. Darwin was talking epistemology. You are showing yourself to be incredibly ignorant of philosophy. Why do you suppose he was talking about Locke??"

I see you're claiming to speak for all "scientists". Stop embarrassing yourself.

Stop embarrassing YOURSELF. The statement you like to trot out from Darwin's notebooks is NOT about the scientific implications of common descent, it's about the epistemological implications. Which is why he spoke of Locke.

You obviously have never read any Locke.
