Darwinism is Linked to Eugenics

One of the most reprehensible fruits of evolutionary thinking is eugenics, which literally means good genes or well born. Francis Galton (February 16, 1822 – January 17, 1911 was a cousin of Charles Darwin. He decided that human evolution should be helped.

Having a fundamentally flawed worldview, the idea worked from Darwin's idea of natural selection as a creative force. Eugenics was popular in the United States and Germany in the early twentieth century, but support diminished when the Nazis put eugenics into action: Only the best should be allowed to breed — or even exist.

Who were the best, the fittest? Why, it was certain white folks! Papa Darwin was a horrendous racist who believed that Englanders were the best and that darker-skinned "races" would be eliminated. Survival of the fittest, natural selection (his version), and that stuff.

More importantly, who has the right and the power to decide about life, death, and breeding? Atheists and other evolutionists have no consistent moral standard. They had rejected God the Creator and his written Word (and continue to do so). Eugenics also involves "scientific" racism, and neither has disappeared. Since eugenics is an evil part of history that needs to be studied, one professor includes it in his genetics curriculum.

I have long been interested in the enormous harm caused by Darwinism, including eugenics. This interest has resulted in my publishing several hundred papers on this topic. I have also completed several college-level classes in genetics, both at the undergraduate and graduate level, and have also taught genetics at the college level for many years. . . .

For this reason, when I noticed an article titled, “We must not ignore eugenics in our genetics curriculum, says professor,” I read it with much interest. University of North Carolina biology professor, Mark Peifer, opined that knowledge of the history of the eugenics field is critical for geneticists. One of the reasons is that “Eugenics is not dead, but continues to influence science and policy today. We should include eugenics in our undergraduate classes, reminding students that scientists must speak out when others lie about science and use it to further their political views.”

It would be in your best interests to read the entire article at "Why Eugenics Is Tied to Evolution."
