Both the Nazis and the Communists seized upon survival of the fittest theory in order to justify their wars and genocides. Was the science as bad as the morality? the End of Darwinism reports that the history of Darwinism is full of deception, error, and politics:
A series of famous biologists have appeared to support Darwin's explanation for biological change while not actually believing in it. Even Thomas Huxley, "Darwin's bulldog," privately rejected Darwin's principles of gradual transformation and survival of the fittest. But Huxley needed the money he could make writing on a controversial topic, and he had a grudge against the church. Huxley boasted that, against the church, evolution was his "Whitworth gun," an advanced firearm of the time.
Textbooks have been infested with phony examples of natural selection. Most popular has been Darwin's explanation for the height of the giraffe. This is an absurd mistake stemming from the English scientist's ignorance of giraffes and their feeding habits. Nevertheless, it has been published for nearly 140 years--so desperate are the Darwinists for evidence.
Another textbook falsehood more than a hundred years old is the claim of gills on the human embryo.
Few biologists have the nerve to go against the science establishment by criticizing Darwinism in public. However, Lynn Margulis, the world's leading authority on microbial evolution, notes the lack of evidence and calls Darwinism a "religious sect."
Ever since Charles Darwin was alive, mathematicians have criticized his theory as nonsensical. In 1966 a big international conference pitted mathematicians against leading evolutionary biologists.
In 1980 a conference of 160 biologist decided that Darwinism does not explain major evolutionary events, but in order to thwart the creationists, the biologists organized an amazingly effective cover-up.

About the Author
Eugene G. Windchy in 1967 left his position as the U.S. Information Agency s Assistant Science Adviser to investigate the forgotten naval incidents that enabled United States participation in the Vietnam War. This led to his writing Tonkin Gulf, which was reviewed in the New York Times as "superb investigative reporting" (September 26, 1971).
Windchy wrote the New Republic s analysis of the Pentagon Papers (August 7, 1971) and other articles for the Nation, Saturday Review, Atlantic, and the U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings. In another New Republic article (January 29, 1972) Windchy contested the settled academic opinion, among both historians and political scientists, that the president has constitutional authority to make war without the nation s having been attacked. Windchy drew upon James Madison s notes concerning the Constitutional Convention of 1787 to show that, in the absence of attack, only the Congress has the right to initiate war. He also debunked a State Department document that purported to show that on 125 occasions presidents had exercised the war power on their own initiative. These were insignificant incidents, and on one occasion the U.S. Navy actually fired on a U.S. Consulate.
After a Soviet warplane in 1983 shot down the Korean Airliner 007, Windchy wrote for the Washington Post an op-ed (October 19, 1983) that disputed the explanation accepted by the major American media and also a book based on interviews with high Soviet officials. According to that explanation, the Soviets mistook the Boeing airliner for an Air Force RC-135 reconnaissance plane. Windchy s op-ed gave reasons for why the Soviets must have known the target was a commercial airliner, and this opinion later was justified when the attacking pilot s account appeared in Izvestia and the New York Times.
When in Japan with the U.S. Information Agency, Windchy wrote a booklet on atomic energy that sold nearly one million copies. On a later assignment in Japan he helped Ambassador Edwin O. Reischauer in his relations with Marxist-oriented magazines and often placed in them articles by the ambassador.
The author and his wife live in Alexandria, Virginia. A daughter resides with her family in Berkeley, California.
