The Moral Dilemma of Evolution

I recently read an interesting article (blog post) about the difference between the gradistic classification of evolution and the cladistic classification form. I found the debate oddly interesting because of the impetus behind it as such. The struggle for evolutionists regarding animals is the continued existence of supposedly primitive forms of now current species. This of course seems to suggest that while natural selection gave us newer forms, the previous forms were still quite fine to survive just as they were. However, even deeper of a problem is that struggle with race equality that evolution precipitates. It was this issue which gave rise to Hitler and the founder of Planned Parenthood. Of course, thinking evolutionists need to find some way to discourage their view from promoting racism or addressing the lack of intermediary forms coupled with the persistence of primitive forms.
Therefore, they have adjusted their classification method to state that all current forms have evolved equally. Therefore, the most basic fungus or insect is equally evolved as humans and thus every culture is equally evolved but different. While the presentation does not satisfy the missing links, the cause and effect issues, the time concerns, or all the numerous intellectual issues with evolution, it is highly encouraging that those who profess evolution are seeking for moral answers to the broken fabric of their system.
