I've had some really strange exchanges with fundamentalists who argue that, because Hitler and Stalin believed in evolution, that makes Darwin a Nazi and/or Communist, and everybody who believes in evolution a Nazi sympathizer and/or Commie.

That's an example of what I call a low level of discourse.

Another fundie argument -- Margaret Sanger believed that birth control would limit the number of "defective" children. We call this eugenics, and it's been largely discredited, although there is a genetic basis for birth defects.

At any rate, the Nazis practiced forced "eugenics" so if you support birth control or abortion you are a Nazi.
