在达尔文出生的那个年代,没有人会接受关于进化和人类起源的自然主义学说,他在那个时代分享了他关于自然、上帝以及历史的观念。在“贝格尔号”航行之后,他提出的“生命始于同一祖先”理论如何能令人信服,是他面临的巨大挑战。自从达尔文开始进化论的研究之后,他对“我的理论”的推广并非一定意在反驳宗教教义,而是作为宗教和科学的进步。达尔文深信的一条教义,就是人类具有共同祖先或者说所有种族皆兄弟——这可作为废除黑奴制度的一个理论根据。英国已于1838年废除了奴隶制,世界的目光于是转向美国——该国奴隶制正如火如荼,并得到一种支持奴隶制、主张人种多元的新特创论的支持。达尔文的跨洋策略自19世纪50年代开始便深深影响着美国反奴隶制的精英博物学家,他们对共同祖先理论的支持将被用来颠覆这一人种多元特创论——比用《圣经》中那不足凭信的人种同一论更为有效。因此,他的理论可作为道德和科学领域的进步而引起美国基督教世界废奴主义者的兴趣。然而,该策略却从未完全发挥自身所有的潜力,这使特创论在20世纪萌生了新的形式。
During Darwin’s birth, no one would accept the doctrine of naturalism about evolution and the origins of mankind, at which time he shared his ideas of nature, God, and history. After Sailing in Beagle, he proposed that “how life can be at the same ancestor” can be convincing and is a great challenge to him. Since Darwin began his study of evolution, his promotion of “My Theory ” is not necessarily intended to refute religious doctrines, but rather as a religious and scientific advance. One of the doctrines Darwin believes is that mankind has a common ancestor or brothers of all races - a theoretical basis for abolishing the slave system. Britain had abolished slavery in 1838 and the world’s gaze turned to the United States, where slavery was in full swing and supported by a new generation of innovation that supported slavery and advocated diversity. Darwin’s transatlantic strategy has deeply influenced the anti-slavery elite naturalists in the United States since the 1850s and their support of the common ancestral theory will be used to subvert this multi-faceted creationism - The less than credible ethnocentrism in the Bible is more effective. His theory, therefore, can arouse the interest of the abolitionists of the Christian world in the United States as a result of advances in moral and scientific fields. However, this strategy has never fully realized its full potential, which led to a new style of innovation in the 20th century.
