You assume too much. I merely said I admire Darwin, not that Darwin ever promulgated the theory of "survival of the fittest." Of course Darwin opines that species disappear or thrive due to their ability or failure to adopt to changing circumstances.... whether or not that equates with "inferiority" is in the mind of the beholder. The concept of "race" is ignorant. There is no different "races", merely local environmental adaptations. If people are capable of breeding, they cannot be a different species. However there is no doubt that different "races", i.e. different localized tribes may hold different cultural / economic / political values based on their local experiences. That said, I do find that the whole false notion of "diversity" is a red herring promulgated by those who seek to glorify tribalism and separatism. When " multi culturalism" includes collectivism; dependency; statism instead of different types of cooking....that is where it becomes a stalking horse for those with a hidden agenda. It is a matter of values and ideas....not race. flw <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
