"Ann Coulter is stunned. How is it, she asks, that she could go through 12 years of public school, then college and law school, and still not know that it was Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution that fueled Hitler’s ovens*.
'I never knew about the link between Darwin and Hitler until after reading Richard Weikart’s book,' said Coulter, a popular conservative columnist and a featured expert on the new Coral Ridge Hour documentary, Darwin’s Deadly Legacy, which airs August 25 and 26. Hitler, she said, 'was applying Darwinism. He thought the Aryans were the fittest and he was just hurrying natural selection along.'
Coulter is among those who appear on Darwin’s Deadly Legacy, a disturbing look at the historical impact of the theory of evolution and the shaky scientific ground on which it rests.

Be afraid, be very afraid
There are very scary people out there and some of them are making films!
Did you know that without Charles Darwin there would have been no Adolf Hitler? Yeah. I didn't know that either! Neither did the fabulous Ann Coulter!
*Note: I have, on occasion, as been so unlucky as to hear Ms. Coulter speak. I think that this is not the only factoid that she missed in "12 years of public school, then college and law school". But that's just my opinion.

What is the connection between Hitler and Darwin?
Hitler was a creationist, at least as far as human beings were concerned, and so anti-Darwin.
There is the link.
