Darwin was apparently a racist, eugenicist jerk. Sigh.

I'm not bothering with this one since PZ destroys the argument.

I will just point out the two denialist aspects of these non-arguments.

1. Selectivity: This is quote-mining and using statements out of context as PZ demonstrates. They even have one they like that suggests Darwin beat puppies for fun, I shit you not.
   
2. Logical Fallacy: The Red Herring seems most obvious. Darwin's personal life or beliefs have little to do with scientific fact. This would also easily qualify as poisoning the well.
   

It's pathetic to see what the creationist denialists think should pass for argument.
