“I have hitherto only considered the advancement of man from a semi-human condition to that of the modern savage. But some remarks on the action of natural selection on civilized nations may be worth adding . . . With savages, the weak in body or mind are soon eliminated; and those that survive commonly exhibit a vigorous state of health. We civilized men, on the other hand, do our utmost to check the process of elimination; we build asylums for the imbecile, the maimed, and the sick; we institute poor-laws; and our medical men exert their utmost skill to save the life of every one to the last moment. There is reason to believe that vaccination has preserved thousands, who from a weak constitution would formerly have succumbed to small-pox. Thus the weak members of civilized societies propagate their kind. No one who has attended to the breeding of domestic animals will doubt that this must be highly injurious to the race of man. It is surprising how soon a want of care, or care wrongly directed, leads to the degeneration of a domestic race; but excepting in the case of man himself, hardly any one is so ignorant as to allow his worst animals to breed.”
Charles Darwin, Descent of Man
“Man must realize that a fundamental law of necessity reigns throughout the whole realm of Nature and that his existence is subject to the law of eternal struggle and strife . . .where the strong are always the masters of the weak and where those subject to such laws must obey them or be destroyed, one general law leading to the advancement of all organic beings . . . let the strongest live and the weakest die.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf
Only Charlie Gibson could miss the connection between these two.
For the love of Pete’s Dragon, when will that guy finally evolve?

Unfortunately, Gibson (and maybe Anti-Christer) has probably evolved as much as he will. That is a sad trait of people who are convinced that their own intelligence and intellect has progressed as far as is humanly possible, to that of god (small "g").
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me." Unspoken in that is that it includes one's self.

Ok, swap out the picture of Stalin for a more subliminal image of your favorite fuhrer…whatever floats your boat, dude!
