If you knew anything about the history of science, you’d know that the WORLDVIEW of origins has next to NOTHING to do with scientific advancement, because some of the greatest advances in science were made by those believing in intelligent design, including young earth creationists like Isaac Newton and Blaise Pascal.

They didn't believe in the Atomic Theory either, does that make it wrong? Can you name any scientific advancement made by a scientist in the 20th century made by any scientist who didn't believe in evolution?

If you knew anything about recent History, you’d know that atheistic evolutionists comprise the overwhelming preponderance of the greatest butchers of human life the world has ever seen.

Yeah, there were never any wars, murders, adultery and the whole world lived in one big Christian Utopia all until Charles Darwin came along and ruined it all

Pluueezze, Stalin didn't believe in Evolution and Hitler was a Christian

Dumb argument anyhow, even if evolution was misapplied by people doesn't mean it's wrong anymore than the fact that people have been murdered by being pushed out of windows makes the theory of gravity wrong

> Pluueezze, Stalin didn’t believe in Evolution

Stalin was INDEED an evolutionist! It was Darwin’s book that changed his life. Stalin was a Seminary student when he read Darwin’s book. In a letter he declared, “You must read it!”

The title of Darwin’s book was, “The Origin of Speicies by the Process of Evolution and the Preservation of Favored Races”.

Now there’s a great theme for the advancement of the brotherhood of man.

If Hitler was a Christian, then he didn’t read the Bible.

Jesus was a Jew, doncha know.

The Jews were God’s CHOSEN PEOPLE, doncha know.

What about, “Love your enemies”, “bless them that curse you”, “blessed are the peacemakers”, “God hath made from one blood all nations”, “whoso hateth his brother is a murderer”, all of which are in the New Testament?

Hitler had Lutheran and Catholic priests put to death for objecting to his ethnic cleansing programs.

Now there’s a real Christian for you.

The “Dark Ages” were NOT an artifact of Christianity, but an artifact of the LACK OF Christianity! The BIble was FORBIDDEN by the existing Roman hegemony. Only the Monks and Priests had access to it, and most of them were ILLITERATE, making copies letter-by-letter when they couldn’t even READ it.

In the 15th Century, when Erasmus had learned enough Greek to study some Greek New Testament manuscripts he had discovered he said, “Either this is not the Bible, or we are not Christians”.

From extant New Testament Greek manuscripts, Erasmus compiled the Textus Receptus which Luther translated into German and Gutenburg printed in his new invention, the Printing Press.

Then came Tyndale in England who proposed that every Ploughman should have a Bible.

From this was born the Reformation.

Without the Reformation, it is very unlikely that there would have ever been an Enlightenment, which fostered the scientific discoveries and advances in Science we so enjoy today.

The advent of Evolutionism, and the shrill protests and smarmy tactics of its defenders, blackballing all who criticize it, in the spirit of Mao’s political correctness, THIS is what threatens us with a new Dark Age!
