The evolutionists and the communists both try to rewrite history inorder to hide the truth about their ideology.

Step away from your dogma for a mere second and think about the empty rhetoric of West’s tired rant. West blames a naturalist for America’s sterilization policies in the early 20th century.

As if evolution was accepted and promoted by our politicians then (or even much now). It’s just so stupid and intellectually empty.

It’s just as stupid and empty as if so jerk wrote same dumb article about the bible, which has been done many times over. It’s unfair and solves nothing.

Tell us what you really think! Don't hold back now, just because some of us disagree with you. By the way, all the evidence is on our side...but you probably don't care.

I also notice Ware left out some parts of the Bible that have been used to justify racism and slavery.

Remember, Darwin also said eugenics won’t work basically because it is immoral, and such immorality would weaken a society more than it could hope to gain through eugenics. The leaders of the eugenics movement, and Discovery Institute shills, conveniently ignored this.

You disagree with me that this crap article was just posted the other day by GGG?

(Of course I know that’s not what you mean, but that’s what you said.)

Evidence for what? That Charles Darwin is responsible for all racism and eugenics of the world? Because neither existed before 1859? Because magically now some idiot wrote some dumb book accusing evolution of being responsible and other dumb people eat it up, looking for something - anything - to hold on to in the face of the scientific evidence for evolution?

Note: this is yet another non-scientific creationist rant that does nothing to diminish current scientific understanding.

Also Note: Even if Charles Darwin ate black people for breakfast and tortured Jews for recreation, his theory is still quite impressive and correct. “But you probably don’t care.”

One does not let go a debate, unless one wins or loses.

Because this debate comes up often, the argument hasn’t been won by either side, therefore, it is still a viable point of debate. Let it go whattajoke! Just let it go!

Darwinism doesn’t absolutely require its adherents to be racist, but it has repeatedly tended that way.

Slavery was common in the ancient world, but it was a question of vanquishing your enemies, not of different races that were superior and inferior. “Race” was mostly a scientific theory of the nineteent century, and it fit right in with evolution.

It is common for Darwinists to distinguish themselves from Social Darwinists. But Social Darwinists certainly never saw it that way.

In the nineteenth century, “primitive” didn’t just mean culturally inferior. It also meant racially inferior.

Darwinists still automatically tend to think in those terms. If someone expresses religious beliefs, it means that he is backward, undeveloped, crude, not as far evolved up the tree of life as the superior Darwinists.

I'm tired of it, too. I'm a Christian and a molecular biologist.

I do my best to avoid them. I commented on this one to support your statement.

I suggest that you read, or re-read the Descent of Man. It is an example of a man making poor use of his own scientific work. Origin of Species was based on a lot of grunt work, which made his conclusions persuasive. But the second book does not rise to the same level, is based more on prejuice than observation, and the language IS racist.

Well, one would have thought you had evolved beyond reading posts you know in advance will get your panties in a twist.

I would really like to know exactly when the word 'race' started to appear. I will assume it started in the pages of books written by Darwin, Marx, and Hitler.

So we end up here with hucksters promoting greivances on a national scale in order to promote real live communism by way of economic disruption.

I believe you should be forced out of your college dorm and be made to forcibly meet people people in their own countries.

And ask them of what they think of your ideas and defend them right there. Across ~three civilisations. Pick your your places.

I gave a direct challenge to whattajoke in my post #18. Let’s see if he accepts my challenge. I have 10-1 odds layed out that he won’t accept the challenge.

When you can prove that Margret Sanger didn't use evolution to further eugenics and Hitler didn't use evolution to prove blacks and Jews were under developed and abortion uses the theory that babies aren't humans until you judge them to be, then maybe evolution is just a benign theory that we could just agree to disagree with.

Until then, it propagates the theory that people are just animals that were lucky enough to get oposable thumbs so we could dominate the food chain. I tend to believe I was designed to look like the Creator and was blessed by Him to be his most prized creation. As long as you are just another animal, I should be able to shoot you down like a dog and sleep well at night because you just are advanced pond scum in reality. If you, on the other hand are God's creation that he loves, the I should tremble in fear that I have harmed you and will suffer a great price. Your world kills 50 million babies, gasses millions in war, murders people for $5 in their pocket, and locks people in gulags to work till you die.

If humans are just animals, what in the world are we waiting for? We need to nuke some ragheads, send a few warheads to China, Venezuela, Cuba, N. Korea, and then see if anybody else says a peep about it. We could be king of the world if all we have to do is terminate some primates to fix our problems. Humm, maybe we have a conscience for whatever reason and give value to all people. Your belief system has dire consequences and that is the basis of the argument, not some obscure scientist writing a paper for a government grant money to keep from getting real work.

A dog isn't guilty or innocent, it's just a dog. You have no value if you are just accidental pond scum and there is no Creator.
