Except for survival of the fittest or natural selection, Darwin's main views have been changed by mostly other Darwinian evolutionists to neodarwinism because they need to try to a biological vehicle for macroevulution to work but its still one big dead end as far as observable science. Racism is what you are really talking about when you say Darwin was for white people which shows another of Darwin's false premises.

I am a Christian because I strive to do as Jesus taught. He taught to care for all people. Darwin's theory has led many to believe that one race of humans is superior to other races and I believe this goes against my beliefs as a Christian. Social Darwinism, eugenics and, at the worst end of the spectrum, ethnic cleansing is the end of that line of reasoning. I am NOT saying this was Darwin's intention because I don't know his intention, just how his theories have been interpreted by some people. He was not the first to come up with the basic concept, just the first to put it into a widely publicized scientific context.
Many Christians do not object to science or the facts revealed by that process but do object to what conclusions are drawn. Oddly enough, I love science because it is a method to discover truth in the physical world. My faith is a method of discovering truth in the spiritual world. So, what does the age of a dinosaur fossil have to do with my hungry neighbor? Absolutely nothing! A Darwinist (if there is such a thing) might say because of the idea, "survival of the fit" that my hungry neighbor should die of starvation because he is weak. Jesus said, "Love you neighbor as you love yourself." and I will not let him starve because he is weak. I will feed him because one day I may need help.
The evolution of the Theory of Evolution deals with genetic mutations which enable species to survive and thrive but my hungry neighbor could probably not care less.

Be careful about labeling all Christians into a class of thought. There is fundamentalist, there is the main stream churches, and there are the fringe believers....Main stream churches accept that evolution is a process, a tool so to speak, used to develop. The world is dynamic not static. I am a scientist, and I also study people. It is interesting how people want to take everything and try to make it fit what they don't understand. Goes for all sides in this forum....there is a lot more than just two sides in here.

I consider you candy, everybody is morons. We did no longer evolve from modern-day-day apes, yet we did have an hassle-free ancestor. We developed down one course and that they yet another. yet we are nonetheless very close on the situation of them. hence why ninety 8% of our DNA fits a chimpanzee. As for the persons above that write off Evolution by potential of asserting it truly is in easy terms a concept, you would be able to desire to earnings extra. For one concern a medical concept and a concept out of your uncle George is two countless issues. a medical concept is one, which has no longer been disproved yet is somewhat no longer considered. on condition that evolution takes hundreds of thousand of years it truly is totally complicated for a individual to work out it in action. people don’t stay long sufficient to view human evolution. this would not recommend it doesn’t exist. We do have many fossils that do ingredient to the certainty of evolution. in basic terms because of the fact they haven’t discovered a fossil for each and in line with annum of our evolution doesn’t discredit the full concept. in case you desire to observe evolution, inspect viruses. the uncomplicated flu case in point evolves in line with annum. For those of you idiots who say, "it truly is in easy terms a concept", in line with risk you ought to additionally furnish up believing in different medical theories like the thought of electrical energy or the thought of Gravity. we can not view those the two yet do you have faith in them?

Christians do not distort anything. We have our own true beliefs and it certainly doesn't go against God's teachings.
