I didn't blame evolution for all the evil of the 20th century. However, there is a powerful affinity between totalitarian socialist systems and evolution, and such systems are always hostile to Christianity and usually Judaism as well. You can sputter and fume all you like, but those are facts.

"By their works you shall know them," and the fruits of evolutionary thinking, in the absence of any theistic worldview, seem to be anger and discontent, as shown by your own language.

I ask you, how does one arrive at the view that human beings have value and deserve to be free (which is what most conservatives believe), starting just from materialist theories like evolution?

If what you say is true "there is a powerful affinity between totalitarian socialist systems and evolution" then you should have no problem proving your statement.

Please do so.

So now it's an 'affinity'. Okay...there's a powerful 'affinity' between Christianity and the Holocaust, and the murder, torture, and persecution of Jews for about 1000 years. Are you sure you want to play this game?

Nice melodramatics, but you have no evidence whatsoever I've sputtered or fumed in my 'conversation' with you. Your credibility is further eroded.

"By their works you shall know them," and the fruits of evolutionary thinking, in the absence of any theistic worldview, seem to be anger and discontent, as shown by your own language.

Apparently you have nothing left but insults and condemnation.

So many misleading assertions....I'll just go with this one....Your question "how does one arrive at the view that human beings have value and deserve to be free"...sorry, I'll have to answer it with questions, which are my answer...

Don't you think you have value and deserve to be free? And your loved ones? And why wouldn't you extend this belief to everyone?
