Not Darwin again?!!!

As if you hadn't had enough of Charles Darwin the BBC rolled out another 3 part, hour long offering called 'Dangerous Darwin' presented by one of the beebs big guns, Andrew Marr. It turns out that Marrs' interest in everything Darwinian goes back 20years and in an interview with BBC 'five live' Marr talks about evolutionary theory like some sort of Religion and Darwin as a saviour type figure, quite scary. For me Marr is one of the best commentators around when it comes to politics and his recent series on the political legacy of post war Britain was 'must see' as is his Sunday Morning Show. So it was quite an eye opener to listen to his 'five live' interview and hear how he has an almost evangelical passion for Charlie D and his writings. The programme, 'Dangerous Darwin' was quite clever in that it sought to distance the real or pure Darwinian thought from the less acceptable political, social and philosophical results of those who used Darwin's theories as a basis for there darker and more extreme actions. i.e. Nazism or apartheid. Marr tries to dismiss such things as an abuse or false interpretation of what Darwin was really all about but he cant be allowed to get away with sweeping aside the mayhem that Darwin's godless theory has spawned in the wicked heart of mankind. Its crush or be crushed. 'The survival of the fittest' as the weak and sickly go to the wall . Those who adapt live, those who don't die off and if man gives a little helping hand so what? euthanasia, abortion, ethnic cleansing maybe that wasn't in Darwin's mind as he searched for an alternative answer to creation but its certainly the awful and logical direction that fundamental Darwinism leads us in and that's a fact of history. As soon as we step away from the Bible and start to interpret things around us with our own understanding then it all starts to get confused and things start to unravel and degenerate. Scripture says: Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and don't lean on your own understanding. acknowledge him in all of your ways and he will make your paths straight.
