Women Inferiority to men according to Darwin

characterized as the weaker gender. Women are
smart, intelligent and a strong creation of God
made equally to men, not to dominate, but to
complement each other, although scientists have
proven that the female brain is smaller and less
developed than the brain of men. Charles Darwin

inferior to men in anything requiring usage of the
brain and hands. The measure of st...

had a hand in the origin of the universe, the
earth, and all of its beings. Scientific
creationism is a belief in six ideas. First the

... own. But importantly, an omniscient being does
not know what it's like to be human, and does not
know feelings like hope and fear. God is supposed
to be incorporeal, bodiless. A consciousness, if
you will. So obviously, God can be neither male or
female, because to be either requires a body,
which God has no use for. In summary, God is
incorporeal, omniscient and omnipotent. Since the
development of the theory of evolution, the
Teleological Argument has lost some of the

Origin Of Species Natural Selection

species did adapt to their changing surroundings.
Furthermore, he was led to protect as a logical,
observable - and even religious - corollary of

probability of ordinary descent for all living
creatures. Eventually, that inspirational pull did
take effect and support for Darwin became stronger
in the scientific community as papers were
submitted that drew from and corroborated his
ideas. By the late 1860 's, th...
