According to your same Turkish Creationist source that claims Darwinism is responsible for terrorism, they were also responsible for 9-11.

Do you agree with the source you quoted that the 9-11 terrorists were “Temple of Darwin fanatics”?

==Do you agree with the source you quoted that the 9-11 terrorists were “Temple of Darwin fanatics”?

The exact quote from the paper is:

“Elsewhere, belief in evolution is blamed for communism, Nazism and - under a large photograph of the World Trade Centre in flames - the 9/11 attacks.”

I assume that Oktar is using evolution as a synonym for religious materialism. And if that’s how he’s using it, I couldn’t agree more.

He goes on to say:

“Hitler and Mao were Darwinists,” Mr Oktar told journalists last month on a luxury boat trip arranged to answer questions about the atlas. “Darwinism is the only philosophy which values conflict.”

I would like to have seen the full quote from the interview, but I think I get the gist of what he’s trying to say: namely, that Darwinism gives justification to all materialist philosophies that value conflict.
