And bring out all the claims that evolution leads to atheism, liberalism, bestiality, feminism, communism, racism, sexual promiscuity, moral relativism, philosophical materialism, and -- of course! -- Hitler, Stalin, and Pol Pot.

Actually, it isn't the theory of evolution per se that led to those nasty little 'isms'.

It was the loss of the fear of God and adherence to His Word.

Evolution is just one more destructive manifestation of man's vain attempt to rationalize existence apart from God.

Once man throws God over the side, those who are created in His Image soon follow.

Loving your neighbor as yourself is the natural outcome of loving God.

If you don't care about the Lord, what could possibly lead you to give a rip about anybody else once the chips are down?

Do you think you can make a case that a strict adherence to Christian principles by society and by individuals would not have prevented every single one of the scourges you list in that post?

To which "God", out of the thousands of deity-constructs acknowledged and worshipped throughout human history, do you refer and why do you seem to think that evolution is an attempt to single out just one of them?

Well then, its a good thing that evolution has also given us kin selection and the resulting interest in protecting others isn't it.
