"New Christian broadcasting TV special featuring Ann Coulter blames Darwin for Hitler An upcoming television special produced by a Christian broadcaster that features conservative pundit Ann Coulter blames Charles Darwin for Adolf Hitler. "Author and Christian broadcaster Dr. D. James Kennedy connects the dots between Charles Darwin and Adolf Hitler in Darwin’s Deadly Legacy, a groundbreaking inquiry into Darwin’s chilling social impact," announces a press release issued by Florida's Coral Ridge Ministries. "The new television documentary airs nationwide on August 26 and 27 on The Coral Ridge Hour." "To put it simply, no Darwin, no Hitler," says Dr. Kennedy. "Hitler tried to speed up evolution, to help it along, and millions suffered and died in unspeakable ways because of it." Fourteen scholars, scientists, and authors featured on the show "outline the grim consequences of Darwin’s theory of evolution and show how his theory fueled Hitler’s ovens," according to the press release. Other participants include From Darwin to Hitler author and California State University modern European history professor Richard Weikart; the director of the Human Genome Project, Francis Collins; and biochemist Michael Behe who wrote Darwin’s Black Box and is a prominently cited source against evolution in Coulter's latest book (in a recent study, Media Matters argued that Coulter's endnotes were "rife with distortions and falsehoods"). "This show basically is about the social effects of Darwinism, and shows this idea, which is scientifically bankrupt, has probably been responsible for more bloodshed than anything else in the history of humanity," one of the show's producers, Jerry Newcomb, told World Net Daily. Coulter vs. Darwin "We keep hearing about gaps in the theory of evolution," Coulter says in the special. "The whole theory is a gap."
