Therefore, Porter implies that we have to choose between cultural discourse and modern materialism.
In the works of Smith, a ...

- Mao-tse-tung And Charles Darwin
By: William Nugent | - We often think of Mao-Tse-Tung as a champion of Marxism but in this article I'll point out that Mao's reign of mass murder and despotism owes more to Darwin than Marx.

There were atheists before Darwin such as Scottish philosopher David Hume but these were few in number. Philosophical atheism failed as an undergirding philosophy because it had no explanation of human ...
