inherited by Charles Darwin.
Charles Darwin's grandfather,
Erasmus Darwin, was an evolutionist who adhered to pagan beliefs. Erasmus
Darwin was one of the masters at the famous Canongate Kilwining Masonic
lodge in Edinburgh, Scotland. He also had close connections to the Jacobins in
France, and the Masonic organization of the Illuminati, whose founding
principle was the hatred of religion. From the research he carried out in his
eight-hectare botanical garden, he developed the ideas that would later go on
to shape Darwinism, collected together in his books The Temple of Nature and
Zoonomia. The concept of "the temple of nature" that Erasmus employed was a
testament to the pagan beliefs he adopted, a repetition of the old pagan belief
that nature possesses a creative force.
Darwinism Prepared the Foundation for Fascism
The myth of evolution, a legacy of Sumerian and Greek paganism, was
introduced into the Western agenda with Charles Darwin's The Origin of
Species, published in 1859. In this work, as in The Descent of Man, he discussed
certain pagan concepts that had disappeared in Europe under Christianity,
and gave them "justification" under the guise of science. We can outline these
pagan concepts which he attempted to justify, thus preparing the groundwork
for the development of fascism, as follows:
1) Darwinism provided the justification for racism: In the subtitle to
The Origin of the Species, Darwin wrote: "The Preservation of Favoured Races in
the Struggle for Life." With these words, Darwin was claiming that certain
races in nature are more "favored" than others, in other words, that they were
superior. He revealed this dimension of his ideas regarding human races in The
Descent of Man, where he proposed that European white men were superior to
