My freind, you are in serious need of a real education. Homeschooling obviously didn't work.
Hitler didn't "teach kids evolution to make them go along with him." He believed in a thing called Eugenics, which is pseudoscience based very loosely on natural selection. It's bogus, it doesn't work, and when applied to human beings is nothing short of racism.
I'm sorry you've fallen for the lies of men like Kent Hovind. You obviously got the latter half of your rant directly from one of his videos. Have you even read a book about evolution that was written by a reputable source? It's all well and good to watch creationist propaganda films, but one should at least be inclined to check up on these things before blindly believing everything you hear.
If you think evolution has no value then you might as well never get another flu vaccination... in fact, don't even vaccinate your children. Vaccinations are the result of that evil evolutionary science. Much of moder medicine draws from evolutionary science. Next time you're sick, or your kids or family are sick, don't even bother taking the prescribed drugs if you believe evolution is useless.

C'mon, admit it, you're a little slow, aren't you?
"When people find bones and fossils(like dogs do in the back yard),the ONLY thing we know is something died!!!" We know they died millions of years ago.
"It is 100% USELESS!!!" Why, because you say so?
"Adolf Hitler taught the young people evolution,and that is how he got them to go after the jews.Hitler believed the jews had not evolved as far as the blond haired blued eyed people." Hitler was also a christian. Are you SURE you want to go down that road?
"There is NO good in the EVOLUTION fairytale for adults."
Odd, religion is more of the fairytale here. And I thought your god made everything that evolution has been working on.
"If I told you a woman kissed a frog,and it became a prince--is that a fairytale?
If I said a frog SLOOOOOOOOOWLY becomes a prince over millions of years,that is science?????" Becuase humans evolved from frogs. Obviously.
Does your mommy let you use the computer right now? Are you sure she'd want you on here seeing all the satanism and edumahcation?

Hold on world! We have a new Socrates! What a tremendous display of "logic"!
Were you aware that Christians of all stripes used evidence from the gospels to prove that the Jews had been abandoned by God and used it to persecute them century after century? And not just Jews. Christians used the Bible to excommunicate, exile and exterminate anyone who didn't believe exactly what they did. The endless wars in Europe between Catholics and Protestants had nothing to do with "God".
To speak about evolution, one actually has to study it and understand it. Cleary you haven't. Animals didn't "change", species changed. "Adaptation" is a matter of which creatures survive an environmental change and which do not. And the principles are illustrated every day, in selective breeding, antibiotic and pesticide resistance, the adaptation of flu viruses, and just about every other dimension of biology.
IF Hitler actually taught "evolution", he was misinterpreting it, propagandizing it for his own ends, much as fundamentalists do. Hatred seeks no explanations, only excuses. And zealots aren't interested in understanding, only in "winning". It's hard to wage a war over science, since it only tries to explain HOW things happen. It's the WHYs that make people crazy.

Evolution is critical for medication. Do you take medicine? Do you ever visit doctors? If so, then you ought to believe that evolution is useful, because evolutionary theory is an important part of the medical field.
You're right. The only thing we know when we find bones is that something died. Evolution is an interpretation about what happened to all the somethings that we have found with similar structural characteristics.
Additionally, evolution can be demonstrated without looking at the fossil record. For example, we can observe the genetic similarities across species that are reproductively isolated.

You went to American public schools, didn't you?
>>It is 100% USELESS!!!
Wrong. It has many applications. The same can't be said about creationism.

>>Adolf Hitler taught the young people evolution
No, he taught them a biogoted philosophy that has no scientific basis, not evolution. Evolution doesn't say anything one way or another about morality or individual "superiority".

>>If I said a frog SLOOOOOOOOOWLY becomes a prince
>>over millions of years
You obviously have no clue about how evolution works. It's not individuals that evolve, but populations. Futhermore, an amphibian suddenly giving birth to a human (let alone one of a royal family) would be a good arugment AGAINST evolution.

>>the ONLY thing we know is something died!!!
Until you actually study the fossil, that is.

It's too bad that you feel accepting evolution is too much of a threat to your well-being. You could read the above links and learn something. But no, I'm sure you'll just give the "best answer" to some Bible-quoting zealot who agrees with you.

If a frog became a human, even over long periods of time, that would disprove evolution. A species evolves, not an individual.
And eugenics id different from evolution. Evolution says nothing on morality.

Adolf Hitler, as we all know, was a raving lunatic. His argument is stupid because people who don't have blond hair and blue eyes are just as evolved as people who do.
Your example is also wrong, since we didn't evolve from frogs. It seems to me this is just a rant with no evidence to back up what you're saying.

Hehehe.
Evolution is a useful scientific theory about a natural phenomenon. See genetic research for more information. Evolution is the basis for modern biology. And pseudoscience based on social darwinism (see eugenics and Hitler) is not the theory of evolution.
Please learn more before you make yourself look silly. Natural selection. Genetic mutations. Billions of years.
Just admit that you are an evangelical and oppose evolution on religious grounds. There is no excuse for this kind of ignorance.

You're getting desperate, and your desperation is making you sound hysterical and less and less credible every second. Give it a rest. Read up on the theory of evolution before you continue ranting. Not knowing anything about the theory of evolution is making your situation even worse.

Hitler Killed Many Scientists ,Scholars and educators to prove his point .
He Needed to Eliminate Every race and religious belief to make the Germans appear to be superior .
This had nothing to do with Evolution .It had to do with a DERANGED PSYCHOTIC Megalomaniac .
