re: "Darwinism" as distinct from the person Darwin

Don't equate his "theory of evolution" with Herbert Spencer's
political adaptation or version which is also known as "Social
Darwinism."

I don't care if the Methodist minister's son is a rightist or leftist
in the senses the terms are currently utilized.

Some Christians regard Jesus as "liberal," while other Christians
regard Jesus as "conservative."

Can we regard Charles Darwin as one of the greatest minds in history
without placing ideological bias & baggage onto breakthrough biology
or science.

"Lysenkoism" is (I think) a fallacy of bending biology to a political
doctrine (Stalinism).

Wm Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow have already been there and
debated about "Darwinism" and religious doctrine in the infamous 1920s
monkey trial.

I now recall the RCC a decade or so ago acknowledging (accepting?)
evolution.

If you are anti-Darwinist, such should mean that you do not accept
"evolution," not necessarily per se advocating a moral, political or
religious conviction/dogma

If you are against "social Darwinism," then you dislike Herberrt
Spencer's political interpretation, whether you consider yourself
"left" or "right" politically.

"Darwinism" does not have to do with a demon wearing Prada, ....though
why not make a case that it does anyway to further pee me off.
