Evolution has Created Tyrants

Look at all the science proof today that they is to support evolution. Hitler, Jospeh Stalin and Pol Pot didn't believe in Evolution but they believed in religions like yours and Islam which is evil. The fact is that over time religion has brought death to hundreds of million people compare that to evolution which has brought death nobody.

I will wait for you to list the top ones...

Hitler- Adolf Hitler was brought up in his family's religion by his Roman Catholic parents. According to historian Bradley F. Smith, Hitler's father, though nominally a Catholic, was a freethinker,^[1] while his mother was a practising Catholic.^[2] According to historian Michael Rissmann young Adolf was influenced in school by Pan-Germanism and Darwinism and began to reject the Church and Catholicism, receiving Confirmation only unwillingly.

If you have ever read Hitler's secret conversations, it would be obvious to you that Hitler hated Christianity.

Stalin- In Jules Archer's Man of Steel: Joseph Stalin, it talks about how Stalin rejected religion and embraced evolution.

Here's a question, why are most atheists atheists? The answer is usually because people say evolution is a FACT (despite it being a theory, yes I know what a scientific theory is).

This is what resulted from evolution:

Eugenics is a social philosophy which advocates the improvement of human hereditary traits through various forms of intervention.^[1] The purported goals have variously been to create healthier, more intelligent people, save society's resources, and lessen human suffering. Earlier proposed means of achieving these goals focused on selective breeding, while modern ones focus on prenatal testing and screening, genetic counseling, birth control, in vitro fertilization, and genetic engineering. Opponents argue that eugenics is immoral and is based on, or is itself, pseudoscience. Historically, eugenics has been used as a justification for coercive state-sponsored discrimination and human rights violations, such as forced sterilization of persons with genetic defects, the killing of the institutionalized and, in some cases, genocide on races perceived as inferior.

-Wikipedia (Eugenics)

Racial hygiene (often labeled a form of "scientific racism") is the selection, by a government, of the putatively most physical, intellectual and moral persons to raise the next generation (selective breeding) and a close alignment of public health with eugenics. In the past, this has been done by using deportation, segregation, compulsory sterilization, and even genocide of persons or groups with various mental disabilities, ethnicities, handicaps, criminal backgrounds, religious affiliations, etc.

-Wikipedia (Racial Hygiene)

Can you call these acts immoral? Not if evolution is your belief. But this is perfectly justified by evolution. This is just one of evolution's demonstration of 'survival of the fittest'. And these were the methods that the tyrants of history have used again and again (most of which was during the last century).

Anyway according to your bible and koran the earth was created in six days. That contradicts science which says the Earth and universe were formed over billions of years.

Again, some people interpret it as 6 literal days (I do as well). Science speculates that the world and universe was formed over billions of years. We still have yet to know how the universe functions. Now... every beginning has a cause, what was the cause in evolution? Answer this question, do absolutes exist?

May God Bless You All
