Man, PH, how can you be a sane man and still buy that propaganda? I don't think he really buys it. He just enjoys calling Hitler a Christian or creationist.
Darwin likely understood the political implications since he was influcenced by Malthus:
Before reading Malthus, Darwin had thought that living things reproduced just enough individuals to keep populations stable. But now he came to realize that, as in human society, populations bred beyond their means, leaving survivors and losers in the effort to exist. link
A quick search on Malthus and Darwin should turn up many sources which, even from an evolutionary worldview, admit the connection.

Thanks for the link, Dataman, and for writing.
