However, you might note that as the U.S. moves more and more into a socialist direction, social Darwinism comes more and more into play

Since social darwinism has nothing to do with biological evolution except that some idiots decided that a biological process could be shoehorned into social structure, I'm not sure what you're trying to do here other than divert attention from the real matter at hand.

Evolution is a biological process. Social darwinism is an attempt to apply a mistaken notion of what a biological process is into a social system. It's like trying to create an economic system based upon how gravity works. Bringing up social darwinism into a debate regarding biological evolution is nothing more than distraction.

Not really. The original comment was made equating socialism and creationism. I am contending the opposite.
