I haven’t seen the movie, but Hitler DID utilize Darwin to his own ends, and thanked eugenics professors in the U.S.

Yeah, and I haven’t read Mein Kamp but know enough about it to know it is a very awful book.

What Hitler may or may have not done is entirely laid on him.

To assert that Darwin laid the foundation for Naziism is a smear of the first order, intentionally done, and done so to equate anyone in academia who questions ID as a Nazi.

It was about the cheapest shot possible, and Stein took it. I really was a big fan of his, but I’m reeling at the intellectual dishonesty of this movie. This was really beneath him.

There could have been a movie or television documentary about the ID movement and why universities don’t consider it science. Both sides could have had time to explain their perspectives. That would have been worth watching, and hopefully informative.

“Darwinists” = Nazis is IQ 60 stuff. It has no place in the discussion.

Are you saying Darwin was wrong for postulating about a science that is now know as genetics?

Do you blame the Wright Brothers for 9/11?
