But are the scientists right in applying the theory of evolution to the strange two-legged hominid known as 'man'? Charles Darwin himself was strangely quiet on this point....

Darwin was so "strangely silent on this point" that he went on to write an entire book about it, <a href="http://www.literature.org/authors/darwin-charles/the-descent-of-man" target="_blank">The Descent of Man</a>. See in particular Chapter 6, <a href="http://www.literature.org/authors/darwin-charles/the-descent-of-man/chapter-06.html" target="_blank">On the Affinities and Genealogy of Man</a>
