		<description><![CDATA[Darwin is often presented as a simple scientist, with no axe to grind, to wit no preconceived ideas tainting his conclusions, and simply following the facts to wherever they lead.  The following are a few quotes that may call that noble description into question.

 
Darwin said, concerning man’s origin and descent, “The main conclusion…is that man [...]]]></description>
