I agree completely. They cared about power and would glean any glimmer of support from any ideology they could twist to their purpose, and their purpose was absolute power. I just wonder why some insist on propping up a rather tenuous connection between evolution and Nazism and discount or completely ignore the twisted “Christianity” of the Nazis and the direct words of exhortation to Jew hatred that Jew hating “Christians” have used for thousands of years.

Yup. 100%. I see a very dangerous trend in modern "conservatism"(i.e. not the real thing). You take a tenuous connection(Nazism and socialism, Nazism and darwinism) and play it for all that it's worth with people that don't know any better. That's straight out of the "useful idiots" playbook and it scares me.
