"Prof. Bently Glass, who suggested that the notions of good and evil be completely divorced from their moral connotations and redefined as what is good or bad for the development of a species?"

And that is how you come to tossing malformed babies and the infirm off of cliffs. Indeed, it is exactly how the NAZI's defined good and evil, based on what was best for "their" species.

You are abolutely right. Prof. Glass’ ethics lead straight to the gas camps of Treblinka and the killinlg fields of Cambodia. Toss in the Gulag and Mao’s cultural revolution and one begins to see a pattern.
