The "guilt by association" nonsense about Hitler, saying he is an
atheist, describing his interpretation of evolutionary dynamics et
cetera, used by creationists, as an attempt to "shame" atheists, are
often responded to by atheists, who proceed to explain why these facts
are incorrect.

However, the way atheists respond is counterproductive. Their response
is the equivelant of that of a black man, who upon being discriminated
against, defends himself not by saying that his colour is of no
practical significance to the situation, but instead giving reasons
why he may not be black. The problem with this response is that the
black man(regardless of how true the accusation of being black is), is
implying that the basis for the argument is correct and that
discrimination based on colour is valid.

The most important response to such ramblings regarding evil people
who share the same knowledge as scientists, is not one that deals with
their sincerity, but one that breaks the connection between the
creationist's argument, and it's purpose(to put to shame atheists).

Regardless of what Hitler may have believed or why he may have done
what he did, there are atheists and evolutionists et cetera, who are
genuinely evil people. However, saying that the theory of evolution is
evil because it was used as a premise by one person is like saying the
theory of sharpness is evil because people used it to make swords.

In a nutshell, it is important to remind people that although it is
condradictory of certain religious beliefs, the theory of evolution
does not take their form: it is not good or evil, just a matter of
fact.

It is a written conclusion based on the data taken by the harmless
bearded fellow on £10 notes.

After the point has been made irrelevant, one can then proceed to make
corrections to the creationist's misinformation, without being lowered
to their standard of argument.
