Included in the list of banned books in Germany around 1935 were those: "Schriften weltanschaulichen und lebenskundlichen Charakters, deren Inhalt die falsche naturwissenschaftliche Aufklärung eines primitiven Darwinismus und Monismus ist."<ref>Die Bücherei 2:6 (1935), p. 279</ref> (Translation: "Writings of a philosophical and social nature whose content deals with the ''false scientific enlightenment of primitive Darwinism'' and Monism (Hackel).") The Nazi Party blacklisted books which taught the Theory of Evolution.<ref>http://www.library.arizona.edu/exhibits/burnedbooks/documents.htm</ref> Many people don't know this, and continue to believe that Hitler believed in the actual, scientific Theory of [[Evolution]], due to his own occasional misapplication of the word.
