The point is that Hitler was a Creationist and said about his desire to kill Jews that it was to “avenge my Savior's blood upon the cross”. The other point is that creationists need to lie and misrepresent both science and history in order to try to make their half-assed appeal to consequences fallacy. An additional point is that creationists are most common among the least educated segment of society, and creationist sources make good use of this by peddling lies and disinformation.

Anybody can 'claim' to be anything. Hitler was a lunatic, and evil. There was nothing Christ led about his attempt to play 'god'. There are lies and then there are lies. There is no bigger lie than to claim without one shred of evidence that flesh man of this flesh age once upon a time originated out of a hot steaming pot of primordial soup. Talk about knowledge of good and evil.

Yes, but obviously the characterization of him as being an ardent atheist/Darwinist is incorrect, that was not what he was selling his particular brand of crazy under. He said he thought he was doing the work of the Almighty Creator.

Neither was Stalin an embracer of Darwin's theory. Teaching natural selection made you an enemy of the revolution in Stalin's Soviet Russia.

The entire argument here is to conflate evolution through natural selection and atheism, make an argument that is guilt by association and the fallacy of an appeal to consequences; and to attempt to support that insipid argument with outright LIES and historic inaccuracies.

That is what the creationist is reduced to. Pitiful.

Most Christian faiths have no problem at all with acceptance of science, including evolution, paleontology, plate tech-tonics, radioisotope decay, astronomy, and all the other fields that creationists cannot let stand untroubled, because they ALL conflict with what they would prefer to believe about the natural world.
