Nowadays, the world is becoming diversified, and economic is getting globalization more and more. The mankind has already melted into the billowing economic wave tide. The desire to resources and the motive for benefits makes the original vigorous market competition more ruthless. We are in a material-worshiped ages. In such circumstances, the return of morals and man nature is more urgent than any time. Mankind even needs scientific, healthy, and decorous cultural thought foundation. As Darwin evolution thoughts that has already been known to the world, it's very easy to find the soil that is fit for existence."struggle for existence""the superior win and the inferior is discarded",aren't these the implicit meaning of market economy. Furthermore, traditional Marxists and relevant persons make the Marxist philosophy and humanitarian opposite completely in the explanation for Marxist philosophy. Hence, other scholars blame Marxist philosophy appears"absence of human"and even declare Marxist philosophy is anti-humanity on this point. For instance, Louis Althusser has remarked so explicitly. Marx and Darwin, the two thought giants'thoughts have ever and will continue to affect the whole mankind's thought. Their thoughts have permeated the mankind's each realm of the society extensively. Therefore, we must explain even re-explain the thoughts of Marx and Darwin carefully,seriously and responsibly, and ensure to grasp the two great men's original spirits. If we only comprehend their thoughts as mentioned above, even or say directly many people have considered"The struggle for existence""natural selection"the superior win and the inferior is discarded"such thoughts as their behavior standard. In fact, it's our misunderstanding, and will make negative affection for modern society. According to my above thinking, I will inquiry into the mankind's moral problem and clear Darwin's evolution thoughts, and compare their two's thoughts at last, as well as probe the significance of Darwin's evolution thoughts for Marxist philosophy. This work is urgent to settle either in theory or in modern society. At present, with the market economy extending, our native leader grasp people's spirits belonging in economic wave tide this key problem, and put forward policy of constructing the harmonious society. In the great and hard historic practice, this work, which clear famous thoughts such as Darwin's evolution thoughts and put them into practice, undoubtedly will produce prolong impact. Such measures can not only avoid negative affection that may be produced by the thought, but also the reasonable thought in it can be used into the practice of constructing harmonious society, and give us everyone the activity rule. We will consider matching humanity as premise in the competition. It is undoubtedly consistent with the thought of constructing harmonious society. In this great practice, we compare Darwin's evolution thoughts with Marxist philosophy and probe the significance of Darwin's evolution thoughts for Marxist philosophy. This cannot only comb it accurately more easily, but also push China's development positively. This is the requirement in theory and needs of China's facts.This article can be divided into four parts: I will discuss Darwin's evolution thoughts in the first part, and make his original spirits appear by combing completely; following I will discuss Marx's philosophy thoughts in the second part, and clear how Marx pays attention to and explore human, realizes the philosophy's change and struggle for human's freedom and liberation in his whole life. In the third part, the same in their theory will be discussed, that is, they all focus on"human". I will explain the same in their theory is not accidental but inevitable. In the last part, I will clarify the meaning of Darwin's evolution thoughts for Marxist philosophy in establishment of global view and the thoughts about human, and also the Darwin's inquire on man's evolution and man nature for Marx's scientific hypothesis about man's future that is Communism.The key point and difficult point are in the first and forth parts. Frankly speaking, I feel difficult to drive even bitter in these two parts. Because few people refer to such problems, and I think them very sensitive, however, the materials that I mastered are not full. But these two parts are exactly the meaning of my article. In the first part I will discuss people's serious misunderstanding for Darwin's evolution thoughts, that is to say, they just consider Darwin's evolution thoughts as some abstract options such as"the struggle for existence""natural selection"and"the superior win and the inferior is discarded", and use them on human without thinking. In fact, the thought comes from Origin of Species,while Darwin just describes the whole nature and nature rule in this book. We can not only be limited in the understanding for this book,and we also need to study Descent of Man And Selection in Relation To Sex. Because just in this book, Darwin show descent of man to us, define the essence that why human is human or moral nature. Darwin shows us the hard process that human obtain"moral nature"in long-term evolution by large amount of scientific and definite materials, thus clarify different evolution courses between human and animal. If we just understand Darwin's evolution thoughts simply, then we lower human to animal. In the forth part, I will clarify the meaning of Darwin's evolution thoughts for Marxist philosophy. This significance, which Darwin's evolution thoughts offer scientific support for Marxist philosophy globe view, is known to us and accepted extensively, so I will discuss it simply. In this part, I will emphasize another meaning, which is the meaning about the study of Darwin's evolution thoughts on man nature (moral nature) for Marxist philosophy on human. By this argument, I want to research two problems: one is whether Marxist philosophy appear"absence of human"even is anti-humanity like what some people think; another is I will argue how traditional Marxist discuss about this problem, why it seems to find Marxist philosophy's weakness on this point, and what on earth the original spirits that Marx discuss the problem are.
