Which proves my point made earlier. Darwinism has no foundation for placing value upon human life.

Nor does it try to do so. You are still arguing against your own strawman.

We are just seen as more highly evolved forms from an original source that happened by chance.

Not "highly" - highly is a meaningless adjective in this context. However, we are more specialized than other hominids towards a larger brain, unimpeded voice box, and bipedal stance.

There is no foundation, other than human opinion, for any kind of moral judgment and that opinion could vary from place to place and we legitimately would have no foundatin for stating it is wrong.

Like gravity or quantum mechanics, the theory evolution makes no moral judgements. Same strawman.

In the Darwinist world, one can NOT say with a rational basis that Bin Laden was evil. One can say I don't like what he did, but his majority rule may say it was perfectly okay.

On the contrary, as Junior has pointed out several times, both the individual instinct and the cultural basis for survival, reproduction, and the protection of one's children, impose such judgements. And for clearly rational and easily understandable reasons.

Saying that murderers like John Wayne Gacy let "demons" control their actions absolves them of direct personal responsibility for their actions. And, personally speaking, how is it different than saying "the Norms controlled their fates" or "the Elf-Queen made them do it", or even "evil space aliens from Zarg contolled them like sock-puppets".

No I'm not. You may claim that Darwinism doesn't try to place value on human life, but it can not be neutral. There are repercussions to thought systems. That means EVERY though system. Nothing operates in a vacuum and nothing is without effect on how people think. Darwinian evolution makes humans no more valuable than a bacteria. There are implications to when you tell people they are no better than animals, and repercussions to a system of belief without moral foundation. Again, I sure hope you aren't pro-life. Because having someone who is a Darwinist stand up and say why life is valuable would not e very persuasive.

Okay, a "Favored" race. How's that? That is how Darwin worded it. It also shows that you do not understand Darwin.

No strawman. You can not have it to where it makes no moral judgments. By declaring the origin of man as you have, you have by implication already made a moral judgment in that there is NO basis for morality. You may try to duck that one, but it is the truth. No belief system operates within a vacuum and Darwinists have the responsibility to examine the implications of their own beliefs.

Baloney.

Saying that murderers like John Wayne Gacy let "demons" control their actions absolves them of direct personal responsibility for their actions.

Saying they are less than human, which is what I was referring to, absolves them of responsibility more than allowing demons to control them.

So, in other words, the basis is preference. How can you say that it is a good thing for the race to survive? You can't. You can say the race prefers to survive, but some folks, like Ted Turner, think it would be better if the race did not thrive and survive. Where is he wrong? You can't say he is right or wrong, only that he has a preference that goes against what you have observed to be the "instinct" of humanity. Incidentally, I suppose "instinct" is what keeps all those homicide bombers from blowing themselves and others to smithereens. I suppose instinct is what stops cannibalism. And, I suppose instinct is what keeps certain species from eating their young. Again, Darwinism has no foundation for proclaiming something good or bad- only opinion.
