Hitler did not base his views on evolution.

Since you're not an evolutionary biologist, who's to say that you have a proper understanding of the topic? Who are you to judge who has a proper understanding?

[trebob27]

Creationists, particularly the young earth variety, tend to claim that evolutionary theory means things it does not. When the theory is properly understood many creationist misconceptions of the theory began to disappear. If you want to claim that evolutionary theory means a dog gave birth to a cat, then you have no understanding of the theory. If you want to claim that evolutionary theory means a monkey gave birth to a human, then you have no understanding of the theory.

[trebob27]

If you want to claim that evolution = atheism, then you have no understanding of the theory. If you want to claim that Hitler based his ideas on evolution, then you have no understanding of the theory. One need only look at the facts. This is not a difficult concept to understand.

LIAR

[trebob27]

Back up your accusation with evidence (channel rules 2 and 3) or withdraw your claim. Until you do one or the other your statement here will be regarded as a needless insult under rule #5.

@DrEvolutionQuest Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I'm working on a second draft of this video right now. It should be up in the next day or two. Take which ever one you like better, or both, and feel free to mirror it.

@sculpt2live Well, not. The sign of a great leader is the ability to use symbols and beliefs placed before you to help achieve your purposes. And Hitler was a great, if evil, leader. Lots of religious and non-religious people use religion to gain support from believers. Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Pain are two such individuals.

@trebob27 Also, just felt this should be mentioned, I am not a creationist, though I am still a Christian.

[griffithomi]

@trebob27 Actually, having read Mein Kampf, and having listened to many of his speeches and studied his actions, he did base his beliefs on a suedo-Darwinist view of the world. He was very wrong is his understanding of evolution, but the core of his actions against Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, and members of races other than the "Aryan" race was based on a simplistic view, in which he believed by killing them off, he would prevent to continuation of a weaker sub-species.

who would have thought propaganda could be recycled? btw, social darwinism is not the same as evolutionary theory.

[miracleofbeing]

naive nonsense

[TheRealBladeRunner]

Hitler made a lot of pro-Christian statements, clearly!

He made anti-Christian ones though too, didn't he?

[DeadCellsPhantom]

"SUBJECTIVE jesus" !

[zzxzqwq]

Hitler was evil and to claim that is just a matter of opinion shows you are an evil shit. It is not a matter of opinion. Anything is subjective if you want to talk crap.

There is an absolute morality and burning jews to death was evil. It is not a matter of opinion that he was doing good work. You are sick an evil. Stop trying to play dickhead games with me. It is not a matter of opinion he was evil end of story. It does not matter if he thinks he was good.

Hitler read the works of Nietzsche.
