"No, no, no. It is not amoral, it is immoral. It is indeed evil as we have seen from the results of its adoption in the 20th century." (Evolution)

The horrors of the 20th. Century have not been from evolution or religion. The horror was brought on by the morphing of a bogus system of economics, socialism into the state religions of Nazism and Communism. Last night, during this Creation vs Evolution thread, I felt I was observing the morphing of religion into science and this science into the demand of a state religion ..

I now understand the fear the Left has of conservatives. I felt a cold fear this AM as I contemplated the inquisitional zeal at which the Creationist pursued their ideology. I have no issue with "what" they believe, but I distinctly got the impression that they would be more than willing to make me believe it at the point of a gun. Should I not convert, it would be a "Holy Murder" to kill the "Infidel".

I fear you Creationists are cut from the same cloth as those that rammed the Twin Trade Towers on 9/11. I think your extremism is the main reason this country is drifting to the left, away from fundamentalism and not, paradoxically toward socialism.

Oh, spare us, elbucko. The scientific basis of Darwinism is at issue, not Creationism. If you can't hold your own here, by all means bow out, but try to do so gracefully.

Wrong, absolutely wrong. Evolution laid the philosophical foundations for both Nazism and Communism. It made scientific materialism respectable. It is the followers of Darwin who using his excuse of 'lower races', eugenics, and 'helping' natural selection, that killed more than 100 million totally innocent people.

I noticed that after a week none of the evolutionists who read your remarks bothered to say anything in rebuttal with facts that are public and readily available.

Supposing for a moment that your fear were connected in some way with reality, and your scurrilous accusation comparing FReeRepublic creationists with the Islamist murderers of 9/11 is not scurrilous, and also supposing that random, purposeless, accidental evolution were true, then in the final analysis what difference does it make whether they succeed or fail in their supposed aim of making you extinct? Why are you complaining about it? On what basis do you condemn it? After all, if FReeRepublic creationists really are aiming to either convert you or kill you at the point of a gun, their actions are just as much a part of the grand evolutionary process as yours are, are they not? If they could get away with it, why not? What does an impersonal universe that is just the result of a gigantic series of cosmic accidents care? What basis does ANY part of the evolutionary process give you to condemn it?
