Charles Darwin and the Races of Man

View Charles Darwin and the Races of Man

I said that the Bible does not use the word “race”, actually it does to refer to the type of race that you run. However it does not use the word “race” to refer to a people with the possible exception of the word “generation” in matthew 24:34 which Strongs concordance says may possibly mean “race.”

Origen Of Spec. When I said that The Origen Of Species did not deal particularly with man what I meant to say was that it didn’t focus on humans but rather it discussed the theory of evolution as it pertained to all of nature. Mao is responsible for the deaths of 40-70 million, not billion, people. When I said that Darwin did not believe that education could shape human nature, I want to say that I don’t think that it can either. However my reasons for believing this are very different than Darwin’s. Darwin believed that education could not shape the nature of those that he considered to be lower races of man because he saw them as genetically inferior. I believe that mankind is fallen and has a naturally sinful nature. Education by itself cannot correct this. Nevertheless this has nothing to do with race and all ethnic groups are created equal and loved equally by God.
