Response to Deven's Post, "A Question On Social Darwinism."

I would like to tentatively say that one of your main points was this:  The fact that Social Darwinism in the political sphere perpetuates the more vicious qualities of a society, (and it could be said that it has an overall negative affect on society) does not change the fact that Darwin's theory itself has not been scientifically proven.  

If I am correct in this assertion, I would like to concur with your statement, and add that, to (loosely) quote Hume, and 'is does not make an ought.'  Just because numerous facets of Darwin's theory have been scientifically proven over centuries of research does not necessarily entail that this theory projects a normative 'ought' on other systems that exist within our world- political systems especially.
