Travis: I was indeed referring to social Darwinism; my apologies for not being too clear about it. As for the tagline, I don’t think using the term “darwinism” counters the former. I’m boldly proclaiming God’s Word in all aspects of life and a Christian worldview on issues.

That was my point.

At any rate, I think this thread has gone on too long already

Travis, when “Darwinian” is used in a negative sense it refers to “Social Darwinism.” This does not refer to anything the great and noble Darwin proposed.

In the most common sense, it refers not to “allowing nature to take its course” but to “actively attempting to eliminate the weak members of society.” The best example of this is the attempted Nazi extermination of Jews and the disabled.

I don’t think that this particular case represents Social Darwinism, but Isaiah’s fears are not unfounded.

To call something “Darwinian” as if it’s a different ruleset than nature is misguided and misinformed. If your position is that God created the universe, the physics of the universe and each and every particle in the universe (which I’m assuming is your position), that doesn’t change how nature actually works.

Calling something “Darwinian” only refers to a specific scientist who was at the forefront of the discoveries. Evolution, natural selection, biology, etc. are not just discoveries, they simple are. That goes for whether a God or Gods set it up that way, or if there was no supernatural elements involved.

Therefore, to use the term “Darwinian” as a negative associated with evil is rather counterproductive to your tagline of “Boldly Proclaiming God’s Word.” Darwin didn’t create anything.
