Oh dear, someone's promulgating this steaming bullshit again.
I performed an interesting exercise. I searched my electronic copy of Mein Kampf for various key words. The results? Here they are:
Number of occurrences of "Darwin" : ZERO
Number of occurrences of "God" : 37
Number of occurrences of "Almighty" : 6
Number of occurrences of "Creator" : 8
Interesting this, isn't it?
Plus, the one mention of the word "evolution" in Mein Kampf that I found when searching for it (after wading though large numbers of instances of "Revolution") refers to change over time in the stance of political parties. Here's the requisite passage:
When he uttered that phrase Bismarck meant to say that in order to attain a definite political end all possible means should be employed or at least that all possibilities should be tried. But his successors see in that phrase only a solemn declaration that one is not necessarily bound to have political principles or any definite political aims at all. And the political leaders of the Reich at that time had no far-seeing policy. Here, again, the necessary foundation was lacking, namely, a definite Weltanschauung, and these leaders also lacked that clear insight into the laws of political evolution which is a necessary quality in political leadership.
No mention of biological evolution there.
Oh, and Hitler made statements in Mein Kampf that speak of fixity and immutability of species, which is directly contradictory to a proper scientific understanding of evolution.
It's also interesting to note that books on Darwinian evolution were placed upon the list of seditious books to be removed from libraries and burnt by the Nazis. The list of books includes the works of Haeckel, whom creationists love to hold up as a specious "poster boy" for Social Darwinism, despite the fact that in his own writings, Haeckel rejected explicitly the notion that Jews were "inferior" and actually placed them as being equal to Germans in intellectual development. While, of course, conservative christians in Germany were explicitly milking anti-Semitism for all it was worth, following the example set by Martin Luther.
Plus, if the bible is genuinely "against racism", why did it not ONCE contain an explicit statement repudiating slavery? Why, instead, does it make repeated statements that regard slavery as acceptable?
