If you want to dispute the veracity of evolution, be my guest, but please don't make arguments about the morality of it. That means that any assertions regarding the "cruelty" or "justification of the Holocaust" are completely and totally irrelevant.
Evolution simply explains what animals in nature, in the absence of any sort of moral paradigm, will do. Darwin never said that this was "good" or "bad" behavior, he simply said that it exists. And no amount of disgust or revulsion at this state of affairs makes it any less true. I can't understand why you think it would. Do animals behave reprehensibly toward each other? Yes. Is it unpleasant? Yes. Does this mean it's not true? Of course not.
So, all of that said, why do creationists insist on bringing up moral arguments against evolution? Do they not understand that how warm and fuzzy this state of affairs makes them feel simply DOES NOT MATTER?
