Should an effort be made to explain that
evolution is just a theory when teaching it in
public school? Should teachers explain the racist
philosophical views of Darwin and his advocates? How
about telling them that the full title of Darwin's
book, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural
Selection, includes The Preservation of Favored
Races in the Struggle for Life?
Could it just be possible that teaching evolution as
fact, that students come from animals and without
purpose, be responsible in any way for the increase
of crime and other social problems, such as rape,
that we're seeing amongst our youth today?
Could teaching the 'theory' of creation, that each
person is created uniquely with and for a purpose,
at least with equal time in the classroom, engender
a sense of dignity, justice and a greater value for
human life in them?
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out
that teaching young people that everything about
them, including their emotions, aspirations and
sense of worth are simply the behavior of nerve
cells, would have less than a favorable impact on
them.
For instance, as pointed out by Gary DeMar in his
editorial, "The Dark Side of Evolution," two
evolutionists, writing in the Academy of Science
magazine, The Sciences, stated, "Rape is a 'natural,
biological' phenonmenon, springing from men's
evolutionary urge to reproduce." Couple this with
the over-the-edge sex-ed now being taught in
schools, should we be surprised when we hear that
middle school kids are having sex, even in the
classroom?
By teaching students Darwin's theory of evolution on
race, that race is nothing more than a part of the
evolutionary process, with blacks at the bottom and
whites at the top, could it be possible to
encourage, even incite, some to white supremacy
actions or 'hate crimes' that are on the rise by
young people today?
For instance, T. H. Huxley, a 'disciple'of Darwin,
wrote, "It may be quite true that some negroes are
better than some white men, but no rational man,
cognizant of the facts, believes that the average
negro is the equal, still less the superior, of the
average white man....The highest places in the
hierarchy of civilization will assuredly not be
within the reach of our dusky cousins...."
It doesn't stop with Darwin. Hitler accepted, and
thus promoted, Darwin's theory of stronger and
weaker races. Sir Arthur Keith wrote: "The German
Führer, as I have consistently maintained, is an
evolutionist; he has consciously sought to make the
practice of Germany conform to the theory of
evolution."
Lenin used evolution to brainwash the Soviet Union
into a 'scientific atheism.' Mao, responsible for
the deaths of tens of millions of people, had two
favorite books, one by Darwin and the other by
Huxley. And Nietzsche, who declared to the world
'God is dead,' believed in the breeding of a master
race.
On the one hand students are taught diversity in
schools, on the other, evolution. It's time to stop
messing with our kid's minds!
And it's time to tell them like it is.
If you're not outraged about this, you're not paying
attention.
