Evolutionary Theory: A Cause Of Racism. by onlyfacts: 11:47pm On Jun 03, 2020
Racism is the belief in distinct human races and that they have different inherent attributes or abilities and generally that's some are superior and others inferior. It is also the policy, practice or program of promoting this belief and promoting the dominance of one race over others.

Races have several roots and justification but the belief in EVOLUTION is a strong cause for the indoctrination and spread of racial prejudice.

Our dark skin colour is attributed to been closer to the apes than their white skin color. They point to the shape of head of a black man as a pointer of how close it is to the apes. As long as the pseudoscience called the EVOLUTIONARY THEORY exist even unborn generation of whites will be racist, cause that's what they were thought from birth to believe, that they are the superior race!

To justify the continuous use of the evolutionary theory, scientist now tag racism that stems from it as "scientific racism", and goes ahead to denounce such beliefs. Clearly it is misleading and redirects attention from where the fault truly lie which is with the EVOLUTIONARY THEORY

Look at a vivid description of the evolution of the human races

The white race is obvious number 1, all other races come after. This is part of the racist problem.

Social Darwinism ( the theory that the laws of evolution by natural selection also apply to social structures) began actively to be thought in schools throughout the western world creating generations upon generations of white supremacists who manifested racism.

It took only some few decades ago to break this "physical social structures" but mentally in the minds of many whites they still persist today and will persist as long as the theory of evolution exist!

Pseudo-scientific racism and social Darwinism are stemming from the supremacy of the whites in the evolutionary theory in South Africa

Re: Evolutionary Theory: A Cause Of Racism. by onlyfacts: 10:02am On Jun 04, 2020
historians call scientific racism (but actually the real culprit is pseudo-evolutionary theory) — the spread of bogus theories of supposed black inferiority in an attempt to rationalize slavery and centuries of social and economic domination and plunder.

Why will a white call a black a monkey or throw a banana at him? He surely believes he is closer to the apes than he is and is definitely inferior.
Re: Evolutionary Theory: A Cause Of Racism. by onlyfacts: 10:04am On Jun 04, 2020
This thinking would thrive in the 18th and especially the 19th centuries. It would mutate, vary in perversion and persevere for 400 years right up to the present day. Starting with theories of physical and intellectual inferiority that likened blacks to animals — monkeys and apes especially — or helpless children, it would evolve to infer black cultural and then social inferiority.
Re: Evolutionary Theory: A Cause Of Racism. by onlyfacts: 10:06am On Jun 04, 2020
Such thought exists today with pernicious assumptions about the current nature of black life and black people, still featuring age-old racist references to blacks as animals. It persists despite the advent of modern DNA science, which has shown race to be fundamentally a social construct. Humans, as it turns out, share about 99.9 percent of their DNA with each other, and outward physical characteristics such as hair texture and skin color, about which racists have long obsessed, occupy just a tiny portion of the human genome.

Even so, many Americans, blind to the origins of racist notions, “think that there’s such things as black blood and black diseases and that black people are by nature predisposed to dancing and athletics,” Kendi said. “These are common ideas.”

In nineteenth-century anthropology, blacks were often situated along the EVOLUTIONARY LADDER midway between a classical ideal and the orangutan.

Wrong! Darwinism theory of evolution shaped social Darwinism.

Social Darwinism does not believe in the principle of equality of all human beings. It states that:

Some human beings are biologically superior to others

The strongest or fittest should survive and flourish in society

The weak and unfit should be allowed to die

in evolution when we say survival of the fittest we mean people who can successfully pass of their offspring!

Flawed logic...as flawed as evolutionary theory and social Darwinism. To remain relevant evolution hides itself in modern light but ask them to show you the human ancestry in pictures, there you will perceive how still clearly racist it is and this is thought every day in schools around the world!

This is a modern illustration, notice how the evolutionary artist in his drawings render modern man as white and primitive man as black, where did they get the idea of that skin color from? Still pointing to the fact thst blacks are closer to the apes than the whites are.

Look at yet another picture from a modern evolutionary book "The human evolution in science textbook from twelve different countries published in 2008". Read the extracts from the attach images below....see white supremacy ideology and see how recent those evolutionary illustrations are, check the dates they were published. Note those with red dots on their heads are the black men, fully erect, having the looks, the stature and all other physical attributes of modern man but not yet the finished product according to them. The finished product happened to be an illustrated white man due to racism of superior mentality.

And like I said your logic is flawed. The title ones again of this post is EVOLUTIONARY THEORY: A CAUSE OF RACISM. To believe that evolutionary theory illustrations have been revised points to the fact they they have been racist and even still are. As you have agreed to this by your previous posts, the aim of my post is accomplished.

Please trying proving reasonably evolution isn't pseudoscience or a cause of racism?

You can't either retrospectively, presently or mathematically (the odds are an impossibility).

No, evolution is scientific fact. That is, it is a process that has been very consistently and reliably observed, both in “real time,” and in both genetic and fossil records, and for which a huge number of such observations have borne it out.

The only way evolutionary science could be pseudoscience is if no one applied scientific methods to questions about evolution. That would require a rather massive conspiracy.


Evolution by natural selection does not lead to social Darwinism.

social Darwinism Is just an ideology that’s trying to use the scientific theory of natural selection

Guess you dont know the scientific fraud in evolution?

Retrospective evaluation and mathematical models does not support it. The probability that life came from outer space into the chaotic prehistoric harsh earth environment in the form of microorganisms or vital molecules necessary to form DNA and life are astronomically slim, the odds are seemly impossible. And to believe the odds still favoured the diversification of all life forms into their male and female kinds even if it's trillions of years ago is still mathematically an impossible odd. It is less than one chance out of a billion trillion, the chance that a 200-component organism could be formed by mutation and natural selection is less than one chance out of a trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion! 

My head hurt just thinking about the numbers!

Fossil records doesn't also support it, as their are vital "missing links" and "important missing link frauds". I will mention only notably ones by genuine scientist, others are ongoing currently. Examples are Piltdown Man, Nebraska Man, Archaeoraptor, Cardiff Giant, Alyoshenka, Fake Fannia Fly, Amphicoelias fragillimus, Piluxy River Tracks, Fiji Mermaid amongst others. Without this vital missing links evolution is based on poor evidence.

The existence of evolution also fosters racial prejudice. Read my previous post here for more of that!

That is not evolution. You just described abiogenesis. Evolution by natural selection never made any such claim you stated up. Evolution by natural selection is only telling us how complex life and how different species came about.

you are talking about the origin of life which is not related to evolution but abiogenesis


Evolution is a fact same way gravity is also a fact

You failed to realise that the mathematically odds of one specie jumping to another or formed by mutation and natural selection as is thought in EVOLUTION is less than one chance out of a trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion! (I thought you would have picked this clue above)

Now this supposedly happened several times over for all the different species we have under EVOLUTION, which is simply an impossible odd, it's a computing disaster! (You also failed to pick this clue from my previous post on evolution)

And then you have the fossil records with missing links and for those claimed to be "discovered", still uncovered to be fraudulent missing links.

Evolution can never equate to gravity. The facts of the existence of gravity is observable, it can be explained as a theory, can be experimented on to confirm the existence of gravity and mathematical it can be verified as a law.

Evolution holds no such truth either retrospectively with fossils, presently with advance in science or mathematical with its astronomical odds.

oh, I get your point of argument. It is called the argument from Incredulity


It's impossible to "calculate mathematically" how improbable it was without knowing the processes and circumstances that brought it about. Most Creationist essays pretend to estimate the chances of a modern protein forming by the random assembly of component amino acids. Of course, such an event would be hugely improbable, which is why it almost certainly didn't happen that way. But just because it didn't assemble randomly doesn't mean it was intelligently planned.

I will stick to the topic of this post that centres on EVOLUTIONARY THEORY: a cause of RACISM. Like I said, anyway you look at it, retro,presently or mathematically you'll have an inconclusive answer, which is not supposed to be so for a THEORY. Other scientific THEORIES can still pull their weight under scrutiny but Evolutionary theory at best is make believe, a source of racism and supremacy ideology amongst others.

Bwahahahahaha! So your objection here is the pictures are painted with colours you perceive as racist? This is a joke. LMFAO!

There is no attempt to deny anything because history is there for us to learn from our mistakes. Did people use evolutionary theory as a basis for racism? Yes they did, just like they used the bible for a basis for slavery, this is human history of mistreatment of one another. However our current understandings don't condone this thing so to come out and begin to paint this false picture shows you have a poor understanding of the theory and you are simply regurgitating nonsense you saw somewhere.

You yourself have admitted to it, unlike your previous post were you tried to ignore it as false. The evolutionary theory created a system of social Darwinism and scientific racism that has endured for centuries. Current evolutionist have tried to change the narrative in recent times due to genetic studies showing all race of humans are actually 99.9% alike in our Genome. But there are still some fundamental flaws:

1. Like I have proved on many occasions, the EVOLUTIONARY THEORY is pseudoscience without sufficient evidence backing it. Unlike other scientific THEORIES, it cannot carry it's own weight under scrutiny. Read your signature, it states: "any truth that cannot withstand scrutiny is fake".

2. Since the Evolutionary theory is flawed, its continued use should be abolished and other concepts should be explored. Abolishing it will finally bust the ego of many whites that consciously or subconsciously use it as a bases for racism.

Stop selling fake scenarios, I did not deny anything. I laughed at the old hat information you were trying to pass off as new, its all there, my posts haven't been deleted.

1. You have presented the usual evolution denying propaganda. If you lot have any proof that evolution is false, one of you lot would have won a Nobel prize by now. YOU HAVE NO SUCH PROOF.

2. Abolished by fact deniers? Not while sane people are still alive. Meanwhile you can keep plugging your fake scenario while we continue laughing at you.
