It’s what we bags of chemicals do. We make complaint-sounds when our threat-detection systems signal that the bag in question, our own, is about to be broken.

OK, but what about the system of the bag of chemicals that is saying survival of the fittest? The strongest and superior should survive. Seems like Hitler was being consistent.

Your rhetorical device is the false dichotomy: either evolution is wrong, or there is no such thing as right and wrong and no point or purpose in life, and we might as well all just curl up in bed and block out the world.

You have asserted it is a false dichotomy but you did nothing to prove it was. If all life came from the same simple organism by chance then there is ultimate right or wrong, unless you are willing to argue that there is right and wrong with actions being taken by every other life form around us. In other words, if there was not right and wrong at the very beginning you can’t logical interject an objective right and wrong some billions of years later.
