H5. Do you think the ideas of Darwinism -- survival of the fittest -- made World War I so horrific? No, A theory that isn't true can't drive mankind into a world war. Only if Social Darwinism was true could it have caused World War I. If your head hurts you don't blame it on a ball that wasn't thrown at you, similarly you don't blame a war on a theory that isn't true. Bryan's idea of logic was that World War I was caused by social darwinism, and so he apparently devoted his life to opposing the idea of it, this makes no sense. Only if the theory is true did it cause World War I, and I believe it is false.

:Very interesting argument: "A theory that isn't true can't drive mankind into a world war."  But don't false theories gain acceptance and cause harm, such as false claims of racial superiority?
