creationist threads are just a way to discredit FR.

evolution and political eugenics are not related. This is just a background noise for the left to slap conservatives on the whole insurance abortion/contraception debate.

or worse...

"Evolution" and "Social Darwinism" are convenient philosophical springboards from which to *launch* eugenically related attacks; for an interesting aside on this, read P.J. O'Rourke's essay on "Overpopulation" in All The Troubles In The World: he notes that Paul Ehrlich decries the teeming throngs in India, but not the equally crowded masses on the Riviera -- is his concern for "overpopulation" merely a politically correct way of expressing and acting on racism?

Cheers!
