Default The Moral consequences of Darwinism
In 2004 , Richard Weikart wrote "From Darwin to Hitler: Evolutionary Ethics, Eugenics, and Racism in Germany". The book covers many aspects of the moral consequences of Darwinism and its impacts on Adolf Hitler and the mindset of the scientists of that age. The book also gives a glimpse of the early social Darwinism. Last century was the century of revolt against God and religion, as a result of which some worldly gods appeared and with the swords of moral relativism crushed the heads of many , making the last century the bloodiest century of the history of mankind. Darwinism has played a vital role in it.
Here is Richard Weikart giving an insight into his book.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_5Ew...eature=related

Well it's really funny how darwin's theory doesn't convince anymore neither atheist- scientists- (at least not all of them), but they're still against creationism. I found this article, http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2...ys-darwin-was/, they seem really preoccupied. lol.

I think we can start opening our mouth in the Indo-Pak region too.
They created this monster there, let us bury it here.

Evolutionary Psychology says things like women are most likely to cheat on their provider type (Beta male) husbands to impregnate themselves with Alpha males so they can have their children. According to statistics many peoples father is not really the person they know as their father. If true it kind of implies that religious morality is going against biological drives.

I suppose this is a rehash of the old Free Will vs Determinism debate...and people will fall on different sides of the fence. Ibn Arabi's epistemology suggests that all human views can be partial and only in rare cases do the humans involved overcome this partiality and see things from a more larger integrated perspective, which exists, if only humans do not restrict themselves to a partial epistemology. For example the Islamic laws of hijab it can be argued prevent the biological drives from running amok.
