You did link Darwin with eugenics:

A direct link with Darwin: his cousin, who specifically credited Darwin with inspiring his own ideas.

You misunderstood. A direct link between Galton and Darwin. If you reread my posts, it will be abundantly clear that I never blamed Darwin for eugenics. The original statement, to save you some time, was: "A fascist who embraces Catholicism starts inquisitions. A fascist who embraces evolution advocates eugenics." The accent is on the word "fascist", not "evolution".

Does that clear things up for you?

I'm aware that you never blamed Darwin for eugenics. My point all along has been that the biology professor in the article made a deliberate attempt to associate Darwin's theory with Nazi atrocities. If she's going to do that, then she better be prepared to associate Hitler's crimes and Christianity. Both ideas are below the belt attempts to smear by association, IMO.
