pagan world. In fact, Nazi Germany, with its system reminiscent of that
practiced in Sparta, was based on paganism. Towards this development, a
number of fundamental cultural changes were necessary between the French
Revolution, at the end of the 18th century, and Nazi Germany, at the beginning
of the 20th. These important changes were brought about by a number of
thinkers during the 19th century. The most important of these was Charles
Darwin.
Darwinism and the Revival of the
Pagan Superstition of "Evolution"
One of the superstitions to survive from paganism, but which only
began to be revived in Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries, was the "theory
of evolution," a theory which maintained that all living things came into
existence as the result of pure chance, and then developed from one to another.
Unaware of the existence of God, and worshipping false idols which
they themselves devised, pagans answered the question of how life came about
with the concept of "evolution." This notion is first seen in inscriptions from
ancient Sumeria, but was given shape in ancient Greece. Pagan philosophers
such as Thales, Anaximander and Empedocles, claimed that living things, in
other words human beings, animals and plants, formed themselves from such
inanimate substances as air, fire and water.
According to their theories, the first living
things suddenly emerged in water and then
adapted to the land. Thales had spent time in
Egypt, where the superstition that "living
things formed themselves out of mud" was
widespread. The Egyptians believed that in
this way the frogs which appeared when the
waters of the Nile receded were formed.
Thales adopted the superstition and
attempted to present a number of arguments
on its behalf, proposing that all living things
came into existence by and of themselves.
These claims of his were based solely in
theory, not on experiment and observation.
Other ancient Greek philosophers employed
Thales, one of the first
proponents of the myth
of "evolution."
