“Man in the distant future will be a far more perfect creature than he now is.” — Charles Darwin

“All corporeal and mental endowments will tend to progress towards perfection.” — Charles Darwin

“Man will become immeasurably stronger, wiser, and subtler. His body will become more harmonized, his movements more rhythmic, his voice more musical, the forms of life will become dynamically dramatic. The average human type will rise to the heights of an Aristotle, a Goethe, or a Marx. And above these heights, new peaks will rise.” — Leon Trotsky

Those have got to be among the most idiotic words I have ever read in my life. Any quarter-witted human being, looking at the history of our species, who thinks that man is “progressing towards perfection,” that the average “human type” in the future will be an Aristotle, Goethe, or (heaven forbid) a Marx, is…missing something upstairs. And yet, leftists today, in America and around the globe, believe they can bring this “perfection” into existence. How? Where is one, single, solitary piece of historical proof that would lead anybody, except blind Marxist sycophants, to believe mankind in the future will be “a far more perfect creature than he is now”? I want some evidence, and I see none over the past 150 years. In fact, I see the exact opposite.

Look at history. Mankind has never “progressed” morally, spiritually, or in virtue and character — never. And our generation is absolutely no different. In my 72 years of existence, this world hasn’t “progressed”; indeed, it is noticeably worse. But we continue to spend our lives arguing........
