Lysenko and the Tragedy of Soviet Science by Valerie Soyfer explains the history you are so woefully ignorant of.

The Communists rejected Darwinism and genetics in favor of a Lamarkian mechanism championed by Lysenko.

In the Soviet Union you could (and would) get sent to Siberia if you taught about genetics or Darwinian evolution.

Once again, when I use the term Darwinism, it IS NOT synonymous with evolution.

And for the record, in the Soviet Union a person could get sent to Siberia for ANYTHING.

Read up on Stalin, he pushed Darwin on those closest to him.

So the ONLY people who say the Soviet Communists rejected Darwinian evolution are those with KNOWLEDGE.

Again, Darwinism and evolution ARE NOT SYNONYMOUS.

Something you are evidently lacking...... in spades.

First you accuse me of LYING and now you suggest I'm lacking knowledge (though you have yet to even acknowledge that eugenics is a prime component of Darwinism). I did not originally post this in Religion, I would prefer that it not be in Religion, but since it is I will abide by the rules of the Religion Forum. Are you aware that such rules exist?

You are losing it!

Are you a “they”? Do you have a mouse in your pocket? I said “they” lied - the authors of this article - assuming there was more than one - I even said what the lie was. That you cannot follow this and insist I am calling YOU a liar means you have major problems with reading comprehension.

I didn't say Darwin-ism - a term that apparently you and you alone are free to define.

Stalin did not ‘push’ Darwin on anyone - he rejected Darwinism as a ‘capitalistic theory’ in favor of Lysenko and a Lamarkian mechanism.

Your ignorance is appalling! Rather than actually learning something you just double down on your incorrect historic ignorance!

Hitler was a Creationist who believed in fixed kinds and that his race was in the image of God.

Soviet Communists rejected Darwin's theory of biological evolution in favor of Lysenko and a Lamarkian mechanism.

Lies on the subject do not further your cause - it just makes Creationists out to be historically ignorant liars.
