For More Than A Century, People Have Often Thought That The Conclusion To Draw From Darwin's Vision Is That Homo Sapiens, Our Species - And We're Just Animals Too, We're Just Mammals - That There Is Nothing Morally Special About Us.

The Chief Trick To Making Good Mistakes Is Not To Hide Them-especially Not From Yourself.
