: : After reading the two texts of the Darwin and Marx, I believe that the two differnertiate from each other greatly. : However both of them represent different revolutions of their time. marx with the communist revolution and Darwin : with the progression of man revolution. Both of these revolutins tie in with the movie "The French Lieutenants Woman" : and the revolutin of human progession that goes on in the film. I believe that Marx was wxtremely wrong in the : communist manifesto. The piece by Marx theororizes the fact that all men are not only created equal but no mater : what, they will always be equal. I strongly disagree with this notion. Ibelieve that the more we compete against each : other, the better race we will become. If I as an individual have no inspiriation to be better than Joe Schmo, then I : have no reason to get a better grades than him por apply myself more. THis is the difference with the Darwin theory, : in which I will want to do better just so I can reproduce better, and the stronger survive and the weaker do not. : You see, in communism nobody owns anything, but they do own something very important, their person. Everyone owns : themselves, and that being the case, they own all their thoughts. The working man/woman owns all of the scars, and : brusies on their person. The simple fact that they will compete to better themselves is enough competition for all. : "WORKING MEN OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE" : What good is competing with someone if you are sure you can win? Think back to the time of Lords and Serfs. When : the Kings ruled and the Peasents lived in poverty. Do you think that the poverty striken land flourshied because of : compitition? Of course not. It got people killed, and people starved to death because the lords would not give anything : away, for they feared that they would become poor in doing so. People went to war over land that wasn't anybodies. : They wanted to better themselves, and their monarchy. I believe that communism could work, and it will eventually be a : wide-spread government. You said you read two writtings by Karl Marx. Which included the Communist Manifesto. Did : you wappen to read anything by Engles? You do know that he helped write the manifesto don't you? You see... if you visit : the site: http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~brians/hum_303/misindex.html, you will realize your misconceptions
