"Without the legal ability to enforce slavery, many people turned to the theories of Darwin to justify racism in its many forms," the book says. "They began to use evolution as justification of their views that African-Americans were an inferior 'race' and a 'sub-species' that was not really fully human and not deserving of fair and equal treatment."

Col 3:11 Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all.

Christianity clearly teaches that all are equal before God. I guess someone who wanted racism needed something to justify it and found it in Darwinism.

The thread is about whether Ken Ham can even read, much less draw moral conclusions.

He does seem willing to read things into the Bible that aren’t there, and teach his fantasies to other people’s children as Biblical truth.
