- QUESTION 1
- One of the biggest stains of the 20th century was the
erection of human zoos at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis. Explain
how this is just a logical extension of the Darwinian/materialistic
worldview. How does the Christian worldview expressly speak against
these human zoos?

- QUESTION 2
- s
the Human Zoos documentary also highlighted, during the early part of
the 20th century, a major social movement, eugenics, began. The purpose
of eugenics was to improve the quality of the human gene pool by
eliminating “bad” genes from the population. Universities taught courses
in this subject, states passed laws that allowed certain persons to be
sterilized against their will, and judging contests were held at state
fairs to determine the family with the most favorable characteristics.
Hitler’s concept of developing a “master race” was an extension of
eugenics. Scientists today who study evolutionary processes have
thoroughly discredited eugenics. However, there are still vestiges of
this thinking in society. Discuss how we still see eugenics in society
today. - Requirements: 250 words minimum initial post, 100 words minimum reply
