                       Hitlerjugend (The Hitler Youth), the Nazis' youth wing, considered Nietzsche's
                       Thus Spake Zarathustra to be a "sacred text."




                              imagine that the extra time We grant to them is good for them. We
                              only allow them more time so they will increase in evildoing. They
                              will have a humiliating punishment. (Koran, 3:176-178)



                              Francis Galton: The Inspiration Behind Eugenic Killings
                              Another important 19th century ideologue, who helped lay the
                       foundations of 20th century fascism, was Francis Galton, known as the founder
                       of the theory of "eugenics."
                              We have already discussed the concept of eugenics. It saw people as a

                       same rules applied to human beings as to animals. It held the belief that the
                       human race could be developed by "breeding methods," as with dogs or cattle.
                       According to the theory, society's sick and deformed must be prevented from
                       multiplying, (if necessary, they should even be killed), and healthy individuals
                       should "reproduce" as much as possible to ensure strong and healthy later
                       generations. This policy was one that had been implemented by the warrior
                       city-state of Sparta, and defended by Plato.
                              With the domination of Christianity, eugenics had found itself
