Stupid Creationist Arguments 14: Darwin was Racist

Copyright of Lone WolfWhen Darwin love the majority of English men where racist. While that in no way shape or form justifies racism the time , place and people hysterical figure lived around must be taken into account when discussing them and their beliefs
Was Darwin a racist? Yes, yes he was. Does that have anything to do with the validity of evolution? No, no it doesn't.

This argument (like the previous) is used by people who do not understand that an argument from authority is not a valid argument. They think that by discrediting Darwin it would disprove evolution.
Science works by evidence not authority. The opinions of a scientist have no baring on the validity of his/her hypothesis or theory.
