I have some material from another of Teilhard’s books of compiled essays
where he incorporates eugenics in a most interesting way. Talk.origins
seems to be wonky at the moment so I dunno if Martin is still engaging with
this topic. A possibly separable topic is what was meant by physiology of
races.  I have bookmarked websites on that, but I think the eugenics angle
more interesting at present.

And I did watch the Teilhard documentary which was mostly positive toward
Teilhard. I did sympathize with his exiles to China and the US. I would
have told the Jesuits to get fucked, but for some reason he held on. That’s
fine.
