Hans Schemm was deadly serious when he said, "National Socialism is applied biology [Darwinism]."

Schemm apparently made the stupid and emotional error of equating "survival of the fittest" with "survival of the most ruthless."

Ironically, the essential principle of natural selection, where a species either adapts to changing environments or perishes, applies also to human civilizations, except that the values fundamental to the Judeo-Christian ethic are what ensure the human race's survival (not to mention our individual souls) in the turbulent environment of human nature. That ethic is the key to adapting socially to and within any environment; as long as we do unto others as we'd have them do unto us, practice mercy and forgiveness, respect marriage and our parents, resist envy and covetnousness, etc. as described in the old and new testaments -- we are always on a path to abundance. Western civilizations with those values at their foundations, have thrived so well, survived so superbly, that they even eliminated human slavery.

If we cease to do those things, we perish and become part of a human history filled with peoples and civilizations of little or zero legacy, forgotten, spent. Abandoning the Judeo-Christian core and then seeing the downfall and destruction of those civilizations where the cold, arrogant brutality of athiesm and socialism presumes to replace Judeo-Christian (not Islamic, not Confucian, not Wikkan, not Buhddist, not Hindu, not Ba'Hai, but only and specifically Judeo-Christian) values and principles, is a sad case of what Schemm so condescendingly described as "applied biology [Darwinism]."

So very rich. It seems God certainly has a sense of humor.

Red in tooth and claw ... and idealogy, despite over six decades of propaganda from the left to cover it's tracks. "Ruthlessness" in surviving is fitness to survive under Darwinism.

Nazism as applied biology, indeed. There's a reason leftists and scientists immediately start shrieking denunciations about "social Darwinism." They've been at pains to distance themselves for quite some time.

The left doth protest too much, as doth science. There's another term, an historical one actually used by Nazis, to describe Nazism.

Scientific socialism.
