Fighting for Mussolini
Fighting for Mussolini A former fascist officer makes a remarkable turnaround by
Carl Wieland Fascism—whether that of Hitler’s Germany, Franco’s
Spain or Mussolini’s Italy, has a long, sorry connection with evolutionary
thinking. The German philosopher Nietzsche, enamoured with Darwin and the belief
that ‘science’ had proven the Bible’s history wrong, pushed the
notion that ‘God is dead.’ He proclaimed the concept of the ‘superman,’
the inevitable emergence of a higher species. Such a ‘noble race’ would
finally realize that traits such as humility and service were not virtues, but mere
weaknesses. The world was divided into those who were rulers and those who were
slaves. Christianity was a ‘slave religion.’
