Regarding this bizarre argument that Nazi murderers are the inevitable result of understanding evolution… I think there’s a disturbing new trend in blogosphere. It used to be that people tended to draw a line between what they considered to be “left-wing” and “right-wing,” and then call every person, thing, or idea on the same side of the line as them equivalently good or bad. For example, on digg.com, George Bush, John McCain, the U.S. military, Hitler, the pro-life movement, Fox News, and people who drive SUV’s were all equally evil and hateworthy.

Now even the dividing line is gone. People just pick and choose stuff that they think is good, and stuff that they think is bad, and use any action to justify or blame anyone they want. So a murder committed by a neo-Nazi is considered to be Darwin’s fault. Apparently Michelle Malkin recently blamed the guy’s actions on the Muslims. And someone posted a spinoff link in the previous thread, in which some guest on Glenn Beck was arguing that Von Brunn is actually a leftist, so it’s their fault.
