Darwin was contracting his own work with those racist remarks. He is still one of the most important and influential natural historians of all time despite this stupidity.

How do you figure. Darwin’s only earned degree was in theology. Darwin was not a scientist, nor did he practice the scientific method. He was a med-school dropout turned amateur naturalist. His book Origins didn’t contain any data. It was just a long argument based on practically nothing, except a few minor variations between finches. He didn’t even discover natural selection. That was discovered some 25 years ealier by a creationist. And yet, despite his lack of expertise, and his woeful lack of evidence, the science establishment allowed him to re-interpret the entire history of biology based on nothing more than a fantasy Darwin pulled out of his own head.
