Darwin and Hooker Gleefully Determined that Only Men Like They Should be Permitted to Hypothesise About the Mutability of Species


Hooker and Darwin had a Meeting of Minds. Only Men Such as They Should be Allowed
to Handle the Subject of the Mutability of Species.


(Joseph Hooker 1845 - Letter to Charles Darwin):

"And now for species. To begin, I do think it a most fair & most profitable subject for discussion, I have no formed opinion of my own on the subject, I argue for immutability, till I see cause to take a fixed post…  I still maintain, that to be able to handle the subject at all, one must have handled hundreds of species with a view to distinguishing them & that over a great part,—or brought from a great many parts,—of the globe."

In an earlier blog post, I discuss how this fitted in with the scientific conventions of the time regarding the taboo of deductive reasoning. 

Unsurprisingly, both Hooker and Darwin did fulfil all of Hooker's gleeful self-selecting criteria for who could be considered eligible to handle to subject of mutability of species.

In his 1845 letter to Darwin, Hooker's arrogant self aggrandizing prescriptive proselytizing on who could and could not discuss the topic of the origin of species clearly excluded Patrick Matthew! Because, unlike Hooker and Darwin, Matthew was not a routine species comparison naturalist, and he had not collected many of them from parts of the globe - excluding his role in first importing giant Californian redwoods, the rightful glory for which Hooker's father's friend John Lindley slyly stole.  On which note, significantly, Lindley - like his friend and co-author John Loudon - was well known to believe in the mutability of species. And it was Loudon who wrote in 1832 that Matthew appeared to have something interesting to say on the topic of species.

Further Reasons why Darwin and Hooker would have Despised Patrick Matthew

In a earlier blog post (here), I showed that the correspondence of Charles Darwin and his best friend Joseph Hooker reveals both men would have despised Matthew for using his discovery of natural selection in a bio-socio-political treatise against the monopoly of power held by the British aristocracy.

In this blog post I reveal that both Darwin and Hooker further despised writers - such as Matthew - for holding forth in print on the subject of species when, unlike Darwin, Hooker and Wallace they had not first embarked on epic journeys across the globe for the purposes of exploration and specimen collecting.

As Yeo (1984, p. 24) explains 

 "Licence to theorize was denied to those who had not accomplished significant scientific work in a specialized area."

 Both Matthew and his book failed to meet any of the requirements for notability invented by the Victorian gentlemen of science. For theorizing without a license, they most surely despised him.

In one of his surviving letters to Darwin, Joseph Hooker revealed his own self-serving opinions on who ought and ought not to be permitted to so much as even discuss the subject of species. Hooker pompously proclaimed that nobody had the right to pronounce on the subject of the origin of species unless they had, coincidentally, just like his best friend Darwin, researched a great many varieties and brought many back from different parts of the globe (Hooker 1845):

"And now for species. To begin, I do think it a most fair & most profitable subject for discussion, I have no formed opinion of my own on the subject, I argue for immutability, till I see cause to take a fixed post…  I still maintain, that to be able to handle the subject at all, one must have handled hundreds of species with a view to distinguishing them & that over a great part,—or brought from a great many parts,—of the globe."

Just as Darwinists today have invented their weirdly stubborn and unofficial made-for-Matthew reasons for denying him greatness, Hooker got up to exactly the same guilt-neutralizing mental tricks. And most intriguingly, we can see in the following quotation that he used the word "enunciated" in order to dismiss the value of evolutionary concepts published in the Vestiges, which is the very same word that Darwin later used with great success to conceal the fact of his reliance upon Matthew's origination (Hooker 1845a):

 "I called Watson a renegade for starting with the motto 'omne ex ovo' which I took in its vulgar sense of 'species are constant' & finishing almost an avowed believer in Progressive development, as enunciated & upheld in the already defunct 'Vestiges.'"

The newly discovered fact (Sutton 2014) should not be allowed to pass without comment that the anonymous author of the Vestiges - similarly despised by Hooker - was Robert Chambers. His book was Alfred Wallace's greatest influence and was said to have 'put evolution in the air in the first half of the 19th century'. Significantly, Chambers was one of seven naturalists who read and then cited Matthew's book containing the full hypothesis of natural selection. Chambers went on to meet and correspond with Darwin in 1847 - which represents  just one of several of the first detected routes for Matthewian 'knowledge contamination' of Darwin's brain with Matthew's prior published discovery of the natural process of selection.

Conclusion

Here then we see further hard evidence that can be used to explain exactly why Darwin and Hooker colluded to engage in Darwin's lying plagiarising science fraud by way of glory theft of Matthew's original discovery.
