You've mistated the argument. Hitler did not ABUSE evolutionism. He followed
its logical consequences. Those who misuse Christianity, however, can be
called to account by the tenets themselves. You can't do that with the former.

So the logic is consistent. Evolutionism is unable to distinguish between good
and evil; Christianity can.

A simple way to prove this is to try, based on evolutionism alone, to prove
Hitler was wrong. Give it a whack.
