Darwin was a flaming racist, based on the first editions of OoS.

Also, Lincoln was more interested in preserving the Union than he was in freeing black slaves.

As a Southerner, I'm no huge fan of Lincoln.

Having said that, slavery was wrong, but let's not deify Lincoln or Darwin.

Darwin doesn't even mention human races or human evolution in The Origin of Species.

Try making something else up.
