[BROWN] Add hate to any mixture of ideas, good or bad, and something horrible is bound to come out. The fact that Hitler, a disturbed sick man who blamed his problems on an ethnic group, used ideas from other sources (like Darwin or Nietzsche) does not discredit those sources. A sick mind tends to warp even facts to its own ends. "To make a superior race, we can get rid of lowlife like Jews, gypsies, and homosexuals. Uh, what's that, where did I get the idea that these groups were inferior 'lowlife'? Uh..." > Seems like these Nazis put in more time with Fuerbach and Nietzsche > than they did at the foot of the Old Rugged Cross. Uh-HUH. See above. It seems that way to you in your aposteriori justification. -- Popular consensus says that reality is based on popular consensus. Rich Rosen pyuxd!rlr
