Darwin was just a man of his time. Any person growing up in that area will bound to be a sexist, racist and xenophobe. Great Islamic scholars were also racist and sexist as hell but that doesn't change the intellectual work they have produced. We all are socially engineered by the prevailing ideas of the particular society we grow up in. That's why it's important to be a skeptic and challenge ideas to see whether they hold up to scientific scrutiny.
However values are not up for scientific scrutiny and that's why many societies are held back. The Europeans have constantly managed to re-weave and change their values until they finally came up with the Universal declaration of human rights which I think are powerful values that significantly reduce suffering.
You and @VixR cut from the cloth, brother @Rorschach and myself have already pointed out this wasn't a mere belief based on hocus pocus or the misogyny of those days, he used his theories to argue their inferiority which make absolute sense and none of you countered him using the same principles he doctored to refute him with it.
The question here is since both of you clearly reject this on emotional grounds, on what basis do you accept or reject his plethora of assumptions, conclusions and finding which all take a very simple path/direction? is this emotional driven as it very clearly looks? or is it just blind following?
You equating Islamic scholars (again provided no proof) that held the view that women were inferior based on the views of their time even IF true is irrelevant as they didn't bring about the scripture nor did they author it.
However occultist Darwin produced the scriptures himself, he is the father of natural selection and evolution, the inventor understands it best, hence I understand your pains and cognitive dissonance here, it's hard to refute the Godfather of a theory he doctored which he uses to argue the inferiority of not just women but also blacks.
Both of you have pathetically dishonoured yourselves after Allah has honoured you, I feel the sense of self-hate and pain your both going through.
