Good grief. Blaming Darwin for Hitler’s acts is like blaming Isaac Newton for those killed by artillery. Science is morally neutral.

I believe Newton’s gravity theory is neutral, but Darwinian evolution is so wrapped up in other philosophical issues, if not its own religion of origins, that you cannot equate the two. Newton’s science was based on physics, laws that can be observed. Since Darwinism attempts to explain origins, it gets away from observational science, and presumes that the same natural laws that maintain and grow nature are the same laws that created it. This is a false conclusion. Creation is one thing, growth and maintenance quite another.

Darwinism isn’t scientific?
