                           Europe. 147  Darwin was greatly influenced by Vogt's

                           rantings, and felt honored to count him among his
                           most important supporters. 148
                               Many times in history, there have been mostly
                           successful efforts to keep women in the background,
                           due to the ignorance and backwardness of the soci-
                           eties in question. However, this is something that
                           stems entirely from the influence of the established
                           culture. There is absolutely no biological retardation,
                           as Darwin and his supporters maintained, since God

                           has created men and women equal. To claim that
                           men are superior, and to use this allegation to treat
                           women as second-class citizens, is a primitive behav-
                           ior practiced by societies that do not live by religious
                           moral values. In our day, when equal opportunities
                           are ensured, there are countless examples of women
                           known to be just as successful, intelligent and capa-

                           ble as men.

                               In order to demonstrate that women were "infe-
                           rior," some evolutionist scientists sought to prove
                           that they had smaller brain capacities. Some resorted
                           to such humiliating and illogical methods as measur-
                           ing women's skulls. They imagined that the greater
                           the size of the brain, the more advanced the level of
                           intelligence (which is now known to be invalid),
                           compared their skulls, and declared the women to be
                           inferior. This was actually one of the unscientific
                           methods referred to in Darwin's book:
