So then torturing or killing people is Christian doctrine? That's what the Inquistors did in the name of Christianity. To argue that evolution is antichristian because of Nazism is intellectually dishonest just as using the Inquisition to argue that Christianity supports the torturing and killing of people is similarly dishonest. Now please answer my question. The basic tenet of evolution is that the variation over time in the allele frequency in the gene pool of populations of organisms is sufficient to produce new species. The basic tenet of Christianity is that Jesus is the son of God who died on the cross to redeem us from our sins. How are these two statements in conflict?

The main purpose of the inquisition was to rid Spain of Islam, which I would guess was about as much fun to deal with then as it is now.
