[quote]Yes, and none of them said that evolution is a religion.[/quote] You are right it is the conclusion I came to based on what they wrote. [quote]No, that was mainly because you brought religion into this when you claimed that evolution is one. I cannot let that lie stand, can I?[/quote] It is not a lie it is an opinion, a theory based on observation.

I had my own business, I could afford the rent on the property but not the rent for an appartment so I slept in the car wash, my food budget was 75 cents a day. I could afford one large grape drink and a package of zingers. I did this for a year and a half until buiness imporved for me to share and apartment with two other guys, Winters in Kansas City were not the best when living in a carwash with no heat. We slept on the floor, and pooled our money so we could afford two meals a day. They w

[quote]Evolution: Let's observe who survives. Eugenics: Let's decide who survives. Eugenics is "Intelligent Design".[/quote] I disagree with your conclusion, From what little I know of ID it would go aginst the design if all were put here and then pick and choose who survives. That would be illogical and ignorant or sadistic not the signs of intelligence. If you design an ecosystem then mess with it, it does not show much intelligence unless we are in a lab

[quote]The difference between eugenics, and Darwins theory of evolution is that Darwin's theory was based on NATURAL selection, natural survival of the fittest, where eugenics is based upon forced selection.

The reason is simple; Darwin’s theory on evolution is the linchpin for all the things that people wish to use in order to make a better world. Margaret Sanger figured it out years ago. Survival of the fittest meant getting rid of
