Evolutionary thinking and the pro-life vs. pro-abortion movements in 2012/2013

Questions:

1. How does evolutionary thinking affect the pro-life vs. pro-abortion issue?

2. Is there any evidence that pro-life web traffic has had a recent trend of going upward?

Josef Mengele, Darwinism and abortion

Josef Mengele was an evolutionist monster in Nazi Germany who fully bought into evolutionary racism of Hitler's Germany which promoted the idea of the so-called "German master race".

Marl Ambler states:

Josef Mengele, the infamous race scientist at Auschwitz, studied at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute which had been renamed the Eugen Fischer Institute (p. 310). The Director of the institute was a close associate of Fischer, and Mengele had been a student of his at Frankfurt University’s Third Reich Institute of Hereditary Biology and Race Hygiene (p. 309). There are many other connections highlighted in the book between the colonial race scientists and later Nazi race science.

Paul G. Humbler wrote about Mengele and his pro-abortion views:

Many people today do not seem to realize that the same poisonous philosophy (evolutionism) that justified killing under Hitler has also infected the American abortion mentality.

According to documents released as recently as February 10, 1992, "Joseph Mengele, the Auschwitz death-camp doctor known as the 'Angel of Death' for his experiments on inmates, practiced medicine in Buenos Aires for several years in the 1950s. He 'had a reputation as a specialist in abortions,' which were illegal." It should not be surprising that one who extinguished life at Auschwitz would practice a similar grisly crusade on life in the womb.

Furthermore, the staunch evolutionists PZ Myers rabidly defends pro-abortion thinking. See: PZ Myers on abortion See also: Evolutionist Richard Dawkins on abortion

Atheists and agnostics tend to be the most vocal defenders of evolutionary belief. See: A Who’s Who of evolutionists and Refuting Evolution, Chapter 1, Facts and Bias

The Barna Group found that atheists and agnostics in America were more likely, than theists in America, to look upon the following behaviors as morally acceptable: illegal drug use; excessive drinking; sexual relationships outside of marriage; abortion; cohabitating with someone of opposite sex outside of marriage; obscene language; gambling; pornography and obscene sexual behavior; and engaging in homosexuality/bisexuality

The Journal of Medical Ethics article declared concerning the atheist and sadist Marquis de Sade:

In 1795 the Marquis de Sade published his La Philosophic dans le boudoir, in which he proposed the use of induced abortion for social reasons and as a means of population control. It is from this time that medical and social acceptance of abortion can be dated, although previously the subject had not been discussed in public in modern times. It is suggested that it was largely due to de Sade's writing that induced abortion received the impetus which resulted in its subsequent spread in western society.

How is the pro-abortion and right-to-life ideological fight going in 2012 and 2013?

Previously, we documented that the web traffic of many leading atheist and evolutionist websites has significantly diminished in recent years. See: Decline of internet atheism articles

So let's take a quick glance at the pro-life vs. pro-abortion internet world.
