[[The Theory of Evolution]] suggests that humans evolved to their present state like all living organisms.  The claimed biological struggle for survival that brought humans here is continuing.  Man's long-term survival is, according to evolution, a biological survival of the fittest.  Evolution theory teaches that there must be a biological struggle for survival among various human races and groups.

[[The Theory of Evolution]] suggests that humans evolved to their present state like all living organisms.  This implies that, should selective pressures change, humans as a species may also change.

Darwin was not the first to claim racial superiority.  But he was the first to teach that some races of man "will almost certainly exterminate, and replace" other races of man.  His followers developed a new intellectual field called "eugenics" for this mythical biological struggle.
