Trying to make your case by comparing the demoniac Hitler to true Christians is entirely senseless.

Of course the underlying self-defeating reasoning goes like this: Hitler was an evil Christian therefore Christian salvation is worthless so why bother with Christianity?

Well other than that I am a Christian.

I replied on this thread to the historic inaccuracy presented in the first paragraph - claiming Hitler was a “Darwinist” when it is obvious from his own words that he believed in fixed kinds and that only some people were actually created in the image of God - or the HIGHEST image of God.

You agreed that belief in fixed kinds was true of Creationists - then went on to say that you thought only SOME humans were ‘the image of God’. I found that amusing after so many tried to make the case that only “Darwinists” could think some people were less than fully human - then you chime in and you apparently think that some people are not in the image of God, soulless and mindless. Interesting.

It was the author of this tripe who tried to make the case via guilt by association with Hitler - and the author had to lie to make that case.

The argument went somewhat like this: Hitler was an evil “Darwinist” therefore Darwin's theory is worthless and evil and will make you like Hitler.

That is an illogical guilt by association and an appeal to consequences argument.

All more than ironic from someone who claims to be a Christian himself.
