" Don't you know Darwin is one inspiration for the "Free love" movement?"

That's a joke right? The quote you provided showed that Darwin was a free market capitalist.

" I don't know if his words were twisted by libertines or not, but the implication is certainly there."

Yeah, the implication is capitalism and advancement by merit. I didn't realize that went against conservative principles.

You crevo's are really losing it.

Erm... You can read, right? "Law" and "Custom" in Darwin's time included anti-fornication laws, anti-adultery laws, and social penalties for sexual misbehavior. Darwin can be easily enlisted in support of polygamy and concubinage.

And I'm no crevo, Mr. Heresy Hunter.
