Re: Now There's a Surprise
I would look up the quote for you, but it doesn't seem to matter to you that people can discern how traits can contribute to survival / reproduction without reference to selection at all.

I would look up that mathematical proof that disproves the existence of god and proves the moon is made of cheese at the same time but it does not seem to matter to you

Doesnt you last post use judgemental tone and language which you of course would never do since judgmental language could lead to nazism by your definition?

I don't think that is true, I think most people understand by now. I think you are the only one who still doesn't understand. The comparison leads to the judgemental words, and in turn the judgemental words are conducive to social darwinism.

That sounds fine to me. As long as you never argue it the other way around, namely that being conducive to things like social Darwinism means evolution is wrong, then I have no problem with this. For some reason I felt sure you were saying that the fact that evolution contributes to eugenics, social Darwinism and Nazi ideology means the theory itself is wrong.
