Azimuthal, I think comparing it to the moral standards of today it is irrelevant. It is just plain wrong.

Also the Eugenics that Galton worked on (ie nature vs nuture a study of Variation under Domestication, inheritance of abilities, encouraging rich people to marry each other), and the modern use of eugenics (referring to nazi style mass executions) is disingenuous. Articles like this (http://www.answersingenesis.org/tj/v13/i2/nazi.asp) which go almost as far as blaming the holocaust on Darwin really show that the people who write this *** should move on, and accept evolution for the working scientific theory it is.

I also blame the holocaust on darwin, but not just one him but also martin Luther and everyone who listened to these idiots. That nazi article is by no means disingenuous, It's very accurate.
Evolution is not a working scientific theory, in fact by defenition it's not even a theory. And I won't move on because evolution hasn't moved on.
This rascism, sexism, eugenics are all inseperable parts of Darwinian evolution. People can ignore it ,but it just doesn't make logical sense. If we live in a totally naturalistic world with no Spiritual Truth, protection of the weak, and love and compassion make no logical sense. Kids are shown schildlers list and they go through this numerous times throughout school so they learn from the past and it will "never happen again", but they're not learning from the past, they don't understand that Hitler understood the implications and so do all these communist leaders, and so did all the slaveowners and sexist fools like Darwin.
It's only waiting to become unleashed again, unless people learn and recognise the implications. Sooner or later someones going to come along, someone angry in power, over an angry nation like germany in Hitlers day. They'll understand the implications, and they'll justify it, because when things were going nice, they felt no
motivation to appraoch these moral challanges, but then they're forced to recognise the implications to make serious decisions. Of course it's the wrong decision, but they've chosen that path, and that's where it leads.
