And maybe Darwin didn't write, The Preservation of Favoured Races?Maybe it wasn't Him doing the documenting?

BTW, out of context thing to make him look racist, you know he wasn't referring to human races specifically.
I'm under the understanding that "races" in the title of his book means "species."

Darwin was a racist? Oh man. We need a pie chart of scientist's races now. Is Darwin female? If not, how come. Now we have a sexist issue. This is getting too deep.
Races doesn't even refer to what you are thinking of, AV is unapologetically quote mining.
He probably was racist, but it is hardly relevant.
Not that I know of.Darwin was a racist?
I don't know if he was or not.He probably was racist, but it is hardly relevant.
I don't know if he was or not.
I like to give him the benefit of a doubt and think he wasn't.
But if it turns out later that he was, then I guess I'll have to accept it.
I don't even know what racist means.
It was the 1800s. Most people were racist.
"Survival of the fittest," according to Darwin.
(That is, if you add the "favoured" qualifier to it.)
Thus "favoured races" means the dominant species will be preserved.
(At least, that's what I think it means.)
Not dominant, those that reproduce successfully.
Ya -- when I went to type "dominant," red flags went off in my mind, but I couldn't think of a better word.You should keep that in mind for future discussions.
