Darwin's Dilemma

The brilliance which was Darwin was, to his amasement, not unique, or so it seemed.

Darwin had produced his revolutionary work "On the origin of Species" and was naturally eager to share his findings with the world but his conscience would not permit him to do so.

Darwin realised some likely negative consequences of these revelations, specifically that the origin of man seemed to be, bypassing the actual origin of life itself, a single celled organism which after millions of years of evolutionary development, left its closest relatives behind and elevated what was now 'himself' through the development of intellect, to the position of Lord of the Planet Earth.

Darwin perceived that men would be persuaded that religion had no basis in reality since no God was required to make this all happen, or so they said, somehow sweeping the small matter of the the genesis of life under the rug.

He feared the nature of man without the fear of God and his trepidation was well founded.

But there was another who had come to the same conclusions as he had and was about to publish his findings and wrote to Darwin and announced his intentions. This motivated Darwin and particularly those who stood to gain from this publication to pucs him into publishing before he was too late.

Well whether the origin of man lies in a Godless coincidental culmination of factors, the odds of which culmination are beyond imagination, or a creation of sorts as described in one or all of the sacred texts, one thing is certain. Men have changed their approach as a result of this information and the consequences are of no small moment.

It is claimed that eugenics began with the Darwinian theory of 'the survival of the fittest' and the new found obligation felt by those who deemed themsleves above us all and fit to dictate the future path of mankind in such a way as to ensure that we did not go the way of all the species, which appears to be extinction.

And so the likes of Adolf Hitler, who appointed himself ruler of the world, decided that since humans, like an other species, in his estimation, were not worthy of any special treatment but rather that they should be utilised in the interest of the survival and assention of the species to the highest possible elevation.

Experimentation with humans in place of lab-animals would provide information on the best methods of designing the ultimate human mind and body and facilitate the nurture of a new 'super race'.

Well we know the upshot of that but do we really? It is all still happening, only we are blind to it and the subtelty actually fools enough of us to permit the repetition of the horrors the reich perpetrated only this time the scale will be global and comparatively gigantic. While that topic might consume a volume or two, I will leave it be and invite those to whom this is new to investigate.

Aside from that horroific portent, there is the matter of millitant Atheism and Atheism in general, which proliferates at an alarming rate and threatens to turn us all into the animals we've come to belive we are, only far worse than any animal. Atheism's impetus has been ecponentially motivated by the Darwinian revelations which are seen as negating the 'need' for God. Well there is evidence but I certainly do not see it that way at all, in fact every new discovery leads me to think, exactly as I would expect things to be under the benificent God I trust in.

Then there's the new development in Humanism. "Trans Humanism". Transhumanism seeks to pursuing the dream of preventing ageing, recreating failing organs and ariving at an plan which may provide eternal life. It also emdodies the concept of mind, a conscious intelligent entity deemed to exist by virtue of the function of the brain and the biology of the organism, being tranferable to a computer or another body, thus ensuring life everlasting, or at least until something prevents the next transference from a dying or iminent failure of functionality of the inanimate machine it occupies.

These ideas may seem harmless, with the view they are nonsence, but the resources expended in following this dream and the lengths these people intent to go to to ensure a perfect planet or world on which to establish their eternity, are way beyond the percetpions of the uninformed and would astound anyone previously unaware of the extreme nature of their diabolical intentions toward the rest of humanity. These assertions would be frowned apon by your average Transhumanist but they do fit with many other sources of a similar nature.

The general decline in morallity which is denied by many who say that the world is far better than it was 100 years ago, is evident to all and the biggest victim is the institution of marriage and the foundation of human development, the family.

It has long been prophecied that the demise of these institutions will bring about the demise of humanity.

Darwin saw these things and feared, yet if he had not brought these things to light, someone else would have, and the same motivations would have surfaced and this course would still have been followed.
