You mistakenly assume that your list of miscreants derives their mayhem mandates from the Biblical texts. You would be wrong. In fact, the full revelation taken from Biblical texts seeks to preserve life and reveres it as a reflection of God.

Evolutionary theory, OTOH, eventually brings us to the final, stark and mechanistic idea that any value human life has above any other is solely through the cultural frame of reference reigning at any particular time or place. Nature, itself, doesn't care in the least for morals.

If we eat meat, there is no reason not to eat each other. If we kill pond scum to clear the water, genocide is certainly a tool on the bench. After all, if we breed cattle and swine from better cuts of meat, then it stands to reason that eugenics and euthanasia are suitable to improve the human herd as well.

Like it or not, you own it as an organic element of your philosophy.
