One of the tragic legacies of social Darwinism, rooted in the presupposition of biological determinism, is that it assisted in giving justification--frequently couched in the language of "compassion"--to the elimination of lebensunwertes Leben, life that is unworthy of living, or, in the language of Darwinists, life that is simply unfit.

Indeed. It was the prime justification for the mass liquidations of ten of millions of human beings by "progressive" atheist governments in the 20th Century.

Social Darwinism has merely gone into a relatively quiescent phase. It still thrives in the ivory towers of America, as evidenced by this article.

It is also well-entrenched in the laws and social policies of the Netherlands.
