“But then with me the horrid doubt always arises whether the convictions of man's mind, which has been developed from the mind of the lower animals, are of any value or at all trustworthy. Would any one trust in the convictions of a monkey's mind, if there are any convictions in such a mind?
- Darwin

Can you dig it?

Heartlander quoting Darwin: "Would any one trust in the convictions of a monkey's mind, if there are any convictions in such a mind? - Darwin"

Here we see Darwin speculating on potential consequences of his new theory.
His speculations are somewhat interesting, but utterly irrelevant.

You disagree?
