Learned recently that Law also underwent a similar transformation shortly after Darwinism became the new religion of the atheist.
Before Darwin, Law students studied Blackstone’s commentary on the law as the basis of their legal theory. Blackstone’s commentaries were based in the Judeo-Christian/Biblical foundation. IE, law was based on the objective natural Law of God.
This was replaced at Harvard, post-OoS, with the “evolved case-law” legal theory. One with no basis and subject to the whims of “smart people” like judges who could arbitrarily change the laws because they knew better.
Not very sound logic. Hitler is evil. Hitler believed in Darwinism. Therefore Darwinism has to be evil.
Fascinating quote:
In 1833 he made the acquaintance of General Juan Manual de Rosas, who was busy liquidating the Indian population of southern Argentina. “This war of extermination,” Darwin wrote in a cheerful letter home, “although carried on with the most shocking barbarity, will certainly produce great benefits; it will at once throw open four or 500 miles in length of fine country for the produce of cattle.” The “extermination” (a favorite word of Darwin in his writings) of failed races, whether animal or human, is a great theme in his books and a key feature in the advance of the evolutionary process as he conceived it.
Whoa!
Thanks for the ping!
