Charles Darwin...

Charles Darwin was born in 1809 and died
this day in 1882.
He presented man with the concept of Evolution.
Mankind is still evolving.
Backwards it seems...

    I agree with you that it seems like mankind is evolving backwards.

    Yes we are still evolving in all sorts of ways, some of them backwards. Darwins Theory of Evolution is very interesting and has some merits but even he admited that he couldn't account the the first microbes in his primordial soup. So it leaves a big question!
    But the lizards are beautiful - made by intelligent design? Well that's another story...

    "Creationists make it sound like a ‘theory’ is something you dreamt up after being drunk all night "— Isaac Asimov

    "Say what you will about the sweet miracle of unquestioning faith, I consider a capacity for it terrifying and absolutely vile." — Kurt Vonnegut

    "The whole thing is so patently infantile, so foreign to reality, that to anyone with a friendly attitude to humanity it is painful to think that the great majority of mortals will never be able to rise above this view of life." — Sigmund Freud
