I'd like to thank Ed Hudgins for his thoughtful article about Darwin. Evolution appears to be one of the significantly understudied topics by those drawn to Objectivism. But Darwin was a true intellectual hero, whose "Origin of Species" can be regarded as one of the greatest and influential books of all time. Its been widely said by those working in the field that none of the life sciences make sense at all outside of the context of evolution. It should also be noted that Darwin was also an ardent abolitionist who, after his voyage on the Beagle, vowed never again to travel to any country that practiced slavery.
