Bergman, Jerry (2023) The Rwandan Genocide Inspired by Darwinism: Another Tragic Result Due to Belief in Darwinism. Answers Research Journal, 16: 9. pp. 253-258. ISSN 1937-9056
The Rwandan genocide of April–July 1994 shows how a single group of people living next door to each other, speaking one language and sharing the same culture, even often intermarrying, were artificially divided into two races by colonial rulers infused with Darwinism. The race judged superior was the Tutsi race, and that judged inferior was the Hutu race. In the end, in one of the worst genocides of the last century, over 800,000 Rwandans were murdered, mostly the Tutsi murdered by the Hutus. This is one more example of the harm that results from rejecting the biblical teaching that all humans are descendants of Adam and Eve, and replacing this belief with Darwinism. But "Creationism would only be challenged in the second half of the 19th century after the publication of Darwin's On the Origin of the Species" (André 2018, 278). In the century since Darwin, war has led to the murder of close to an estimated one billion innocent people (Courtois et al. 1999).
