But thanks for again reminding everyone that I have an advanced degree in Molecular Biology while you are a (chortling to myself) Communications major. LOL!!! Communications!!! Ha Ha!!
The Communists under Stalin preferred the idea of inheritance of acquired characteristics (Lamarck's idea) and DESPISED the idea of natural selection (Darwin's theory).
Teaching or learning about natural selection for the majority of the time that Russia was Communist, and all of the time of the “Robber Barons” would get you imprisoned, exiled and/or shot.
The Robber Barons didn't think that poor people would acquire the traits of the successful (Lamark’s idea); they justified their eventual death and elimination in terms of natural selection; calling it “survival of the fittest”.
Lamarks idea was that any organism could become “fit” by its behaviors changing what it passed on to its descendants; not that the less fit would die off.
The Robber Barons embraced Darwin's theory as justification for their predatory practices.
The Communists of that time rejected Darwin's theory because they ALSO agreed with the Robber Barons that it sounded like a justification for unfettered CAPITALISM.
==When you call me dreamer; I call you gutless. It is a 1:1 ratio. Stimulus response cycle. Just come to expect it -when you call me dreamer, I will call you gutless.
And when you call me gutless, I call you a gutless dropout, so it’s not a 1:1 ratio.

I never told you I was a communications major. I told you I have a BA in Religious Studies, and an Administrative Master’s degree. If you want to poke fun at my education, at least know what you are poking fun at, otherwise you just wind up looking silly. But given everything else you have been flat-out wrong about, I doubt making yourself look foolish or silly bothers you all that much.

No, the Communists under Stalin were forced to accept Lysenkoism (who had a clown-like understanding of Lamarck) on pain of death.
==The Robber Barons didn’t think that poor people would acquire the traits of the successful (Lamark’s idea); they justified their eventual death and elimination in terms of natural selection; calling it “survival of the fittest”.
Again, the chief philosopher and spokesman for the Robber Barons was Herbert Spencer. And he described survival of the fittest in Lamarckian terms. But either way, whether it be the evolutionist Robber Barons, or the evolutionist Commies, godless materialism is EVIL...not just because of its evil consequences, but because it is a lie and an affront to the Word of God.
==The Communists of that time rejected Darwin’s theory because they ALSO agreed with the Robber Barons that it sounded like a justification for unfettered CAPITALISM.
And your point is? The Communists also rejected Nazism. Does that make Nazism the antithesis of Communism? In all cases, whether you are talking about Darwinist Robber Barons, Darwinist Nazis, or Darwinist Commies, they are all Godless materialists who have tried at various times to implement this demonic doctrine in their own way—and you are helping the Temple of Darwin do it in our own country, dreamer.
