It's one of the oldest and ugliest lies in the creationist bag of tricks: blame Darwin for the Holocaust. It's been debunked countless times.
I've never really understood this argument, even if Hitler cited evolution/natural selection as a motivating reason for the Holocaust, it says nothing about the validity of the theory. I suppose the idea must be that we should suppress the science regardless of the evidence.
This is unfair - it's hotter here in Brooklyn than at my parents house in DC where we just left! We were driving northeast for 5 hours! Isn't that worth at least a few degrees???
And I still have to go back outside to go grocery shopping and return the car. Blast.

No no no, everything Hitler ever had even a remote connection with is automatically and permanently linked with EVIL.
For example: Nazi uniforms included pants. THEREFORE, pants-wearing caused the holocaust. Everyone who is not a nudist obviously loves Hitler and should be shunned by all right-thinking people.
Also, the Wright Brothers' theories led directly to 9/11.
Goddamnit, was trying to buy an airline ticket and the price went up just as I was about to purchase. Graargh.
Huff Po has one virtue...making Kos look good.

Can confirm the hotness of outside in NY. We are done with appt#1, did a short errand to bestbuy and are now at appt#2. We will be eating at Hooters next and I will have a HUGE iced tea.

That is also Hitler's fault.

You can't deny that zeppelins would have caused much less damage.

Certainly, I've heard the argument (to me personally) made that Hitler was an atheist and therefore all atheists become evil if they don't start believing. But it's like making that argument to prove there aren't any atheists, it just doesn't make sense.
