Yes, I think a creationist is closer to the truth than the social Darwinist. We can at least agree that the former does far less harm to society.

    I don’t know if I agree with you that creationists do less harm then social darwinists specifically, but that might be because I’m already at level 3.

    The creationists who are antivaxxers, anti-abortion, pushing Christianity to be the official religion in government, want Bible studies as part of school curriculum, brlieve the Earth is 6000 years old, climate change deniers?

    Those creationists?

      Yea, all that stuff seems pretty trivial compared to the damage of eugenics, forced sterilizations, and genocide. Ya know, Social Darwinism?

      Big letters are more likely to catch your eye and be read easily, while all letters are more likely to be garbled by image compression. It’s well adapted behavior.
