Yet more ahistorical nonsense

The following is taken from an article titled Darwinism Is The Daddy Of Communism And Other Evils

'In a previous essay, we briefly mentioned that the theory of evolution had spawned some very evil progeny such as communism and Nazism.  It is imperative that folks grasp the truth of that (we will discuss this point further near the end).  To help them do so, we are going to look more closely at the effects of the theory of evolution – Darwinism – on key actors who developed and implemented these demonic ideologies.

Karl Marx, who is most responsible for socialism/communism and its murderous revolutions, will be first.  Dr. Jerry Bergman in a journal article writes,

Born in 1818, Marx was baptized a Lutheran in 1824, attended a Lutheran elementary school, received praise for his ‘earnest’ essays on moral and religious topics, and was judged by his teachers ‘moderately proficient’ in theology (his first written work was on the ‘love of Christ’)8,9,10 until he encountered Darwin’s writings and ideas at the University of Berlin.'

Ignoring the usual gross tropes, we offer the ignorant writers concerned the correct timeline concernng Marx:
October 1843, seeing that further political activity in Germany is impossible, Marx moved to Paris.
21 February 1848 Communist Manifesto is published.
Early June 1849 Marx moved to London, where he would remain based for the rest of his life.
1860 Marx reads  On the Origin of Species for the first time.
