→Darwinism and the Holocaust
:You clearly do not understand the [[Crusades]], or the history of [[Islam]]. Before the Crusades, the Moors conquered [[Spain]] and tried to conquer [[France]]. And you probably never learned how the Muslims provoked the Crusades directly: they destroyed the [[Church of the Holy Sepulcher]].

:I reject your defense of evolution. The evolutionary paradigm makes no ''positive statement'' that ''condemns'' a Hitler or a Sanger or a Mengele. The [[Bible]] says plenty about the sort of activities that the Inquisition represented. That's why [[Martin Luther]] finally nailed his nine precepts to the churchhouse door; he wanted to get back to the Bible and away from off-the-rails tradition.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 09:01, 17 April 2008 (EDT)

::{{cquote|(1 Sam 15:1-3 NIV)
Samuel said to Saul, "I am the one the LORD sent to anoint you king over his people Israel; so listen now to the message from the LORD. {2} This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. {3} Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.'"}}
::{{cquote|Exo 22:18
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.}}
::{{cquote|Martin Luther [http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/anti-semitism/Luther_on_Jews.html The Jews and Their Lies]:
Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer selfglory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.
...
I wish and I ask that our rulers who have Jewish subjects exercise a sharp mercy toward these wretched people, as suggested above, to see whether this might not help (though it is doubtful). They must act like a good physician who, when gangrene has set in, proceeds without mercy to cut, saw, and burn flesh, veins, bone, and marrow. Such a procedure must also be followed in this instance. Burn down their synagogues, forbid all that I enumerated earlier, force them to work, and deal harshly with them, as Moses did in the wilderness, slaying three thousand lest the whole people perish. They surely do not know what they are doing; moreover, as people possessed, they do not wish to know it, hear it, or learn it. There it would be wrong to be merciful and confirm them in their conduct. If this does not help we must drive them out like mad dogs, so that we do not become partakers of their abominable blasphemy and all their other vices and thus merit God's wrath and be damned with them. I have done my duty. Now let everyone see to his. I am exonerated."}}
::Yeah, I can't imagine how ANYONE could get craziness like the Crusades or the Holocaust from words of Love and Peace like those! Some people you just can't reach...

Look, you have missed my point. An unhinghed person could use evolution for justification for their actions just as easily as an unhinged person could use religion to justify flying aeroplanes into buildings. Evolution is science. Its like your saying "astronomy makes no ''positive statement' that ''condemns'' a Hitler".
