Charles Darwin was a more fortunate scientist than our own scientist Jose Rizal. Due to his own theory of intellectual evolution for the Filipino, Rizal was put to death by musketry as decreed by the ecclesiastical authority. Darwin was only arrested and then incarcerated. Darwin’s evolution, however, is no longer a theory. It is a scientific fact. In the meantime, intellectual evolution for the Filipino in the Philippines remains neither a fact nor a theory. It is simply, a Catholic inspired tragedy. Poch Suzara

Intellectual evolution for the Filipinos? I guess, we will have to take that on faith?
not meaning to be disagreeable, but the reason darwin's theory of evolution is called a theory is that it hasn't been proven conclusively yet. Nor are the mechanics of evolution fully understood, even today. Newton's three precepts, on the other hand, have been conclusively proven and so are called "Laws." Having said that, let me also say that darwin rocks.
