If evolution is true and there is no Creator, wouldn’t we be required, “ethically”, to kill the unfit?

Evolution being true is not incompatible with the existence of a Creator.

For the record, Darwin was adamantly opposed to killing the "unfit." I believe his words could also be interpreted to indicate that he was appalled by abortion, which he considered "perverted."

I can put up some quotes if anyone is actually interested in what Darwin thought.

Ah... but you dismiss the INTENT behind those that insist that evolution DISPROVES the Creator.

Some on here may deny that that is the whole point of pushing evolution and "disproving" ID, but that's what it's all about.

This corrects my previous post to you which I'm going to have deleted. (I misread what you wrote and thought you said "compatable" rather than "INcompatible. Sorry) "Evolution being true is not incompatible with the existence of a Creator."

TRUE. But it depends on which of the several theories of evolution you're talking about.

They are not interested in what anyone thought, just things they said that they can use when out of context.

Darwin was not a “nature red in tooth and claw” kind of guy. Moreover we are a successful species because we are a highly social and cooperative species. Many of the most successful animals are highly altruistic, social, and cooperative. Why did the most successful human societies all domesticate animals? Wouldn't strawmanevolution require “ethically” that we kill all other species?

Didn’t he also think that negroes had a built-in immunity against mosquito-spread malaria because of their body odor?
