Darwinians/Darwinists/Evolutionists...?
Have you read Charles Darwin's "Descent of Man"?
He referred to the black Aboriginals of Australia as:
"Some savage races, such as the Australians [Aboriginals of Australia], are not exposed to more diversified conditions than are many species which have a wide range."
But then he condoned race extermination of the Aboriginals by the Caucasians when he wrote:
"At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked (18. 'Anthropological Review,' April 1867, p. 236.), 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 civilised state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the ***** or Australian and the gorilla."
(from Darwin's Descent of Man [http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2300])
These ideas, plus much more from his writings, are the cornerstone of ideologies such as Nazism, KKK-ism, and other such modern racist -isms.
Now for all of those who defended/disregarded his marriage to his older cousin in my earlier question, defend/explain these writings if you can.
