Re: This debate was typical creationist pap vs science
in its early years it did justify a very ugly racism and Nazism itself.
No people used it to justify racism and Nazism, much like religion has been used by people to justify atrocities
But the theory itself does not promote morality,
why should it?

It's not enough to bash in heads, you've got to bash in minds
soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden i found myself in love with the world
And so there was only one thing I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang along ling long - Jesus Built my Hotrod Ministry
Live every week like it's Shark Week! - Tracey Jordan
Just a monkey in a long line of kings. - Matthew Good
If "elitist" just means "not the dumbest motherfucker in the room", I'll be an elitist! - Get Your War On

And the only answer to that, considering that it is NOT approved by Him, is that there had to have bee practical reasons
Practical reasons? your god is so limited that is he is bound by practical reasons?
God is fair, God is prudent, God is reasonable.
But apparently couldn't be bothered to outlaw slavery.
