Reseña del editor:

Was Charles Darwin a racist? a sexist? (Did ha consider Negroes and women inferior to Caucasians and males?) Would he maintain that there is no free will? Are dogs religious? Do plants reason? Did he consider all things as fundamentally the same? Is it true that Darwin did not discuss the origin of even one species in his Origin of Species? Was he coerced to describe his principal contribution to evolution (natural selection) as only a metaphor? Is his species only a variation? Would he confess that his theory proved nothing? As incredible as it must sound, Darwin's answers to all of the preceding were affirmative. While the vast percentage of evolutionists worship at Darwin's altar, they do so only because they have narrowed their vision. Thus, while most evolutionists revere Abraham Lincoln's declaration that "all men are created equal," such equality completely conflicts with the Darwinian notion of the survival of the fittest. (Darwin even believed it was a gross error for society to build hospitals and the like which serve the unfit.) And today, as nations seek peace, it was war that Darwin praised.
