This first link gives you a quick overview of social darwinim. This was the prevaling doctrine behind Marxism, Nazis, and modern day monopolistic capitalism. The concept of 'survival of the fittest' has been so engrained into most peoples concious that they never realize the myriad of contradictions they accept along with the 'science' of evolution.

It is this basic doctrine Darwinism that never takes humanity into account and thus destroys rights and morals that aren't in agreement. The constitution provides for rights under God, that is what so many seem to forget. And if they aren't provided by God and are somehow 'self-evident', then how come they aren't provided for in evolutionary theory.

These are the type of roadblocks that allow for great accumulation of centralized wealth and power.We are witnessing this on a global scale as the US and EU exploit and devistate the rest of the world while.imposing a socialist like state of centralized power. We have heads of corporations and heads of government that are interchangeable. These entities make an effective tag team when regulating policy and modifying behavior through mass media. A consensus is achieved through crushing individuality, ignoring morality and treating everyone as a simple cog.

So to all you patriot's, freemen, constutionalists, slaves, workers. Beware the social consequenes of evolution.

Social Darwinism is entirely separate from Evolutionism and is in fact a perversion of it. Both Stalin and Hitler were known to have rejected Darwin's views, however they did accept the concept of racial superiority put forth more by Lamarckism than by Darwin.

Darwinism itself no longer exists and it is now a term only used by creationists as an erroneous name for Evolution. Even if Darwin had a been a racist (which everyone in his era undoubtedly was for obvious reasons) research into evolution has in fact shown us that race is genetically a non-factor, in other words only a handful of genes account for the superficial differences in appearance we call race.


The constitution provides for rights under God, that is what so many seem to forget. And if they aren't provided by God and are somehow 'self-evident', then how come they aren't provided for in evolutionary theory.


The idea of God given rights is an interesting one because nowhere is it accounted for in the Bible. The Bible is the prevailing religious text of Christianity and yet nowhere in the Bible does it mention the rights we have today as God given. In fact the Bible's moral code is disturbingly askew, people are stoned, beaten and killed brutally for things like being a witch or not being a virgin when married. Also, the Declaration merely mentions a creator, it does not specify. The Founding Father's were known to be Deists and many of them dabbled in other religions. Ben Franklin was a member of a number of secret societies and Thomas Jefferson owned a Koran which he donated to the library of congress later on.
.
It is also worth noting that MOST who believe themselves racially superior do so because of religion, such the KKK who have used religion to claim white superiority.

Evolution as a mechanism of biology has been demonstrated a myriad of ways both in the field via direct observation and in the fossil record and is a proven fact. Evolution helped unify us by explaining away race as genetically insignificant.

I find it funny that people attack the social implications of science when it is religion that has the truly dangerous social implications. It was religion that did forced conversions at the tip of sword and spear, religion that burnt people and tortured in the name of their god. It was science that gave us longer life, better technology and an understanding of the Universe, an understanding that was continually blocked by religion when religion used to hold the place of power in society. People were killed because they knew the Earth was not the center of the Universe and tried to spread the truth.

In conclusion: Your attempts at linking the misguided practices of eugenics and racism to Darwin and Evolution area misguided at best and blatantly ignorant at worst. I suggest you research Evolution on a sight that isn't laced with hollow religious propaganda.

Social Darwinism is nothing like Evolutionary Darwinism. For one Social Darwinism is an economic principle, and Evolutionary Darwinism is a scientific theory applied to biology.

For much of the 20th century the arts and humanities in universities have been kinda peeved that the "great scientist" suddenly replaced the "great poet" as the celibrity and "high priest" of society. So one thing they did was to hijack scientific terms with very little understanding, in order to boost their own importance. Oh woe, oh woe!
So this gave us the pseudoscience of Social Darwinism (Eugenics really).

But I'd go further and say that "social/moral relativity" was taken from Einstein, and it was the spark for so much trouble in the postmodern age.

Blaming evolution for Nazism is the same as blaming nuclear science for Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Both sciences were misused.

Survival of the fittest, in the context of Darwinism, refers to the adaptation of individuals to an environment. The way most use it now is not the way it was intended.


It is this basic doctrine Darwinism that never takes humanity into account and thus destroys rights and morals that aren't in agreement. The constitution provides for rights under God, that is what so many seem to forget. And if they aren't provided by God and are somehow 'self-evident', then how come they aren't provided for in evolutionary theory.


This is one of the most ignorant things I have ever read. Evolutionary Theory is about Evolution, not about rights and morals. Evolution is the change in the gene pool of a population over time. It literally has nothing to do with anything that you mentioned.

Also, we don't need God to give us rights (which are agreed upon by the people of the society in question, or by their leaders,) and we don't need God to give us morals (Atheists don't run around eating babies and raping 10 year old girls.)

It's not like any of this matters anyways, because Darwinism is largely dead. This would be equivalent to someone trying to convince everyone against Greek-Roman mythology, even though no one believes in it anyways.

The rationals of Darwinism are the basic for the survival of the fittest exploitations rampant in the society. "All the world is a stage" is played out as black is white everywhere. In the CriminalS Justice System everything is the opposite of what it claims and portrayed to be via the media. Same with the health industry or politics, etc.. The creation of the business suit and the "professional attire" is to make the criminals look presentable. The NWO is nothing by low class, low bred criminals acting virtuous to the camera and the history books.
