Darwinianism

In our first youthful burst of Darwinianism we pictured our evolution as a simple procession of forms leading from ape to man.

The rickety arithmetic of Malthusianism was used against the revolutionary hope, exactly as a travestied version of Darwinianism was used in our own day against Socialism.

Darwinianism and Man, pp. 149-173.

I see that the Standard Dictionary already makes a distinction between Darwinism and Darwinianism, between the views of Darwin and those of the Darwinians, and we clearly see that in some of the most essential points these two tendencies are diametrically opposed to each other.

Some one, however, asked him plumply his opinion of Darwinianism, and he sententiously replied, “Darned nonsense.” "darned nonsense."
