Social responses to the idea of evolution

As "Darwinism" became widely accepted in the 1870s, amusing cariacatures of Charles Darwin with an ape or monkey body symbolised evolution.[1]

Evolution was an idea debated before Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species. In very broad terms, this idea says that species change over time. Even today, some people still talk about the concept of evolution and what it means to them, to their philosophy and their religion. Sometimes these people also talk about the social implications of evolution. This debate is mostly about the meaning of evolution to human life, or about human nature,[2] not about how evolution works.
