Well, Hitler used Darwin's theories as part of his rationalization too;
that's probably why people like to bring it up: survival of the fittest,
to some, implies extermination of the "unfit" (as defined by whoever
wants to exterminate them). Many people, especially Hitler, just don't
seem to be able to distinguish the same-different axis from the
superior-inferior one.

Here, you point out a very important difference between Hitler and God.
But, what about the example set by God?
