If Darwin is an idiot, what is the alternative? Jerry Falwell?

Are you referring to "survival of the fittest"? Well, look around, we all know that theory isn't perfect. If it were, there would be no stupid or ugly people in the world. That is not the case, and yes, do check out the Darwin Awards web site, you won't believe the things "normal" people do.

I'm sure Darwin wasn't an idiot, he obviously was an intelligent man. But so was Freud, and along with Darwin their theories have not held up well to modern scientific scrutiny, at least as we apply it to humans and human behavior.

How to apply which of Darwin's theories? He postulated several. The one he is best known for is his theory of evolution, and you can see the evolution of behavior if you watch the action, reaction and interaction between toddlers, primary school kids, teens, adults and seniors.

Um, lots of people try to explain all sorts of human behaviors by evolutionary mechanisms.

certainly organic and organic evolution isn't on the brink of certainty. a super sort of the history we are taught is complete BS. it is mixture of clever layout and organic and organic evolution. the two concepts themselves are poles on a spectrum, the respond is interior the middle; as with maximum concepts.
