How Your Goose is Getting Cooked
Gary concludes his talk about the conflict between the Christian worldview and its competitors.
The impact of social Darwinism in the African continent is described in Olufemi Oluniyi’s book Darwin Comes to Africa: Social Darwinism and British Imperialism in Northern Nigeria (2023). Oluniyi writes:
It is indisputable that later in the nineteenth century, advocates of imperialism, racism, and eugenics began relying on Darwinist arguments. [Gregory] Claeys points out that “the language of race in the Descent [of Man] is overlaid almost exactly on an earlier, familiar language of savagery and civility, which was itself central to the existing justification of imperial expansion.”
Darwin and other evolutionary proponents believed British imperialism would be a positive force in Africa of “natural selection.” In the chapter “The Extinction of Races” in Darwin’s The Descent of Man, we find the following:
Extinction follows chiefly from the competition of tribe with tribe, and race with race…. The contest is soon settled by war, slaughter, cannibalism, slavery, and absorption. Even when a weaker tribe is not thus abruptly swept away, if once it begins to decrease, it generally goes on decreasing until it is extinct.
When civilized nations come into contact with barbarians the struggle is short…. The grade of civilization seems a most important element in the success of nations which come in competition.
The colonization of Africa could be justified scientifically since Darwinism was now the scientific theory that explained the advance and demise of the savage less evolved races much more quickly than natural selection could ever accomplish. Controlling the selection process was the most important factor.
The most damning assessment of a matter-only cosmos devoid of a Creator is that we got to this place in our evolutionary history by acts of violence whereby the strong conquered the weak with no one to support or condemn them. Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor repeatedly raises the issue of accounting for the conscience, good and evil, and loving our neighbor. It’s shocking to read what atheists say about a cosmos devoid of meaning and morality.
Gary concludes his talk about Christian worldview. While most Christians stand by and do nothing, the other side is working feverishly to implement their godless, humanistic, destructive worldview. Watching from the sidelines is not an option. Which worldview will ultimately prevail? Are you cooking the goose of the anti-Christians or are they cooking yours? Part Two of Two.
