Probably all people should be thankful for Darwin and Darwinism. Darwin and his theories made a great central congealing point for the spirit of natural selection that was "in the air" at the time that Darwin lived.

Now, after more than 150 years since Darwin's "On the Origin of Species," we have multiple thousands of theories about how evolution happened. In fact, because of Darwin, the actual word "theory" has taken on new meaning among the general public - something that is an actuality because it has been suggested, rather than something that looks reasonable and is awaiting proof to determine that it is an actuality.

More than likely, the reason Government can currently treat people guilty until proven innocent, is in part because of the dumbing-down of society, which has occurred because of the transition in the meaning of the word "theory" into an actuality. Now Government can play with people, because people no longer realize what the meanings of words really are. Thank you Darwin.
