Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good.
3 John 1:11
"World Net Daily reported that the body count from Mao’s reign of terror in China has been revised upward to 77 million by R. J. Rummel, a Nobel Peace Prize winning political scientist.
This augments Mao’s Guinness reputation as the worst mass murderer in
history.
His intentional killings, including policies that
intentionally starved 
tens of millions of Chinese people, exceeded those
of Hitler and Stalin. Deaths attributed to Mao’s democide (death by
government) amount to over twice the total combat deaths in all wars
between 1900 to 1987, including World Wars I and II. Of 174 million
killed in 20th-century incidents of democide, 148 million fell victim to
Marxist regimes – four times the deaths by combat, estimated at 34.1
million.
Rummel, who has chronicled 20th century democides, said, “I’m now
convinced that Stalin exceeded Hitler in monstrous evil, and Mao beat
out Stalin.”
All three dictators were committed to scientific
materialism congruent with the Darwinian principles of struggle for
existence and survival of the fittest.
Mao listed two of his favorite authors as Darwin and Huxley. In a 
quote attributed to the Chinese communist leader on Coral Ridge Ministries,
Chairman Mao said, “Chinese socialism is founded upon Darwin and the
theory of evolution.”
Stalin became an atheist after reading Darwin, and
Hitler based Mein Kampf
on Darwinian principles of struggle and fitness.
Such ideas had become
very popular among leading German thinkers in the decades after Darwin’s
Origin, as documented in historian Richard Weikart’s book, From Darwin to Hitler (Palgrave Macmillan, 2004).
Visualize how long it would take to read the names of 77 million
people. At one every five seconds, day and night, it would take over 12
years just to read their names, without even knowing who they
were or the nature of their hopes and dreams – dreams that were
strangled in prison, brutal work camps, torture or policy-induced
famines. Add another 12 years for those killed under all the other
communist leaders, and 3 years 4 months for Nazi deaths – a total of
almost 28 years of reading name, after name, after name, day and night.
This is a stern reminder why the debate
over creation vs. evolution matters.
Ideas
have consequences." CEH
