A July 1, 2013, Daily Mail article on bestiality and Germany declared:
“ | Bestiality brothels are spreading through Germany faster than ever thanks to a law that makes animal porn illegal but sex with animals legal, a livestock protection officer has warned.
Madeleine Martin told the Frankfurter Rundschau that current laws were not protecting animals from predatory zoophiles who are increasingly able to turn to bestiality as a 'lifestyle choice'. She highlighted one case where a farmer in the Gross-Gerau region of southwest Germany, noticed his once friendly flock of sheep were beginning to shy away from human contact.... There are even 'erotic zoos' which people can visit to abuse animals ranging from llamas to goats.[2] |
” |
In 2012, Russia Today reported that is estimated that there are approximately 100,000 zoophiles in Germany (a zoophile is someone who is sexually attracted to animals). [3]
In July of 2013, Tom Miller reported:
“ | Animal rights groups warn of erotic zoo epidemic.
Move over, Japan and Thailand, there is a new leader going into the weird sex stuff clubhouse. To put it SAT terms, Germany is to weird sex stuff what Florida is to weird felonies/ prescription pill abuse. Yeah, that odd. Per the Daily Mail, there is growing concern in Deutschland that bestiality is becoming a popular attraction in the nation's brothels.[4] |
” |
It was reported in July of 2013 that due to a sharp rise of bestiality in Germany and websites promoting it, German authorities had planned to reinstall an old law banning sex with animals.[5]
On February 13, 2013, The Local reported:
“ | As Germany tightened its laws against having sex with animals, zoophile advocates gathered in central Berlin...
On Thursday night, there was a screening of a bestiality documentary “Coming Soon” in Berlin. It was followed by a discussion on leading a zoophilic lifestyle.[6] |

In 2012, the Germany government tightened its bestiality law and now imposes a fine for engaging in bestiality with a €25,000 maximum fine. Bestiality had been stricken from Germany’s penal code in 1969 and since then had merel been against the law if “significant harm” is inflicted on the animal.[7]
Germany has one of the highest rates of belief in evolution in the world.[9] In 2005, it was estimated that 70% of Germans believed in evolution. In addition, Germany is one of the most atheistic countries in the world and the website adherents.com reports that in 2005 41-49% of Germans were agnostics/atheists/non-believers in God.[10]
Germany was instrumental in the promulgation of evolutionary belief and Nazi Germany's ideology was heavily influenced by evolutionary beliefs (see: Social effects of the theory of evolution and evolutionary racism and Evolution and Cases of Fraud, Hoaxes and Speculation). Adolf Hitler's so-called "German master race' was largely based on evolutionary racism (non-evolutionary racism did exist before the Nazi regime, but evolutionary racism greatly magnified existing racism. See: Social effects of the theory of evolution).
Judith Reisman's Kinsey: Crimes & Consequences documents the sexual moral decline that preceded and helped pave the way for Nazi Germany thusly:
“ | In 1932, America and Europe were still reeling from the depression. This was reflected in Weimar Germany|'s "Cabaret Berlin" when nude "straight" and "gay" dance hall entertainments and drugs dominated the urban cultural landscape. Weimar Germany's wide-open pansexual revolution preceded and, in fact, laid the groundwork for the National Socialist (Nazi) takeover. As in the French and Russian revolutions, Germany's political upheaval would also be preceded by a sexual revolution, with thousands of destitute boy and girl prostitutes, fascist and communist youth roaming the violent streets in search of customers and recruits. Alex de Jonge, writes in "The Weimar Chronicle: Prelude to Hitler," that post World War I widespread inflation destroyed the stable, conservative middle class, and predisposed its youth to cynical rootlessness and disorder. The resulting trauma:
"destroyed savings, self-assurance, a belief in the value of hard work, morality and sheer human decency....Traditional middle class morality disappeared overnight. People of good family cohabited [consider that it was illegal to do that. —WHS] and had illegitimate children...Pearl Buck wrote that "Love was old-fashioned, sex was modern. It was the Nazis who restored the 'right to love' in their propaganda," [creating] that new decadent and dissolute generation that put Berlin on the cosmopolitan pleasure seeker's map." [p. 295] "Exploiting this revolutionary upheaval, Hitler had recruited and trained his 'Hitler Youth' since about 1922. Adult males seeking youthful boy consorts traveled to Berlin from all corners of the world to join in on the exitement of the wide-open German free-sex movement," Judith Reisman continues. [p.296][11] |

The staunch evolutionist Stephen Gould admitted the following:
“ | Haeckel was the chief apostle of evolution in Germany.... His evolutionary racism; his call to the German people for racial purity and unflinching devotion to a "just" state; his belief that harsh, inexorable laws of evolution ruled human civilization and nature alike, conferring upon favored races the right to dominate others; the irrational mysticism that had always stood in strange communion with his brave words about objective science - all contributed to the rise of Nazism. - Stephen J. Gould, "Ontogeny and Phylogeny," Belknap Press: Cambridge MA, 1977, pp.77-78).[12] | ” |
Adolf Hitler wrote the following evolutionary racist material in his work Mein Kampf:
“ | If nature does not wish that weaker individuals should mate with the stronger, she wishes even less that a superior race should intermingle with an inferior one; because in such cases all her efforts, throughout hundreds of thousands of years, to establish an evolutionary higher stage of being, may thus be rendered futile.[13] | ” |
Hitler also wrote in Mein Kampf:
“ | The stronger must dominate and not blend with the weaker, thus sacrificing his own greatness. Only the born weakling can view this as cruel, but he, after all, is only a weak and limited man; for if this law did not prevail, any conceivable higher development (Hoherentwicklung) of organic living beings would be unthinkable.[14] | ” |
Dr. Robert E.D. Clark also wrote:
“ | “Adolf Hitler’s mind was captivated by evolutionary teaching — probably since the time he was a boy. Evolutionary ideas — quite undisguised — lie at the basis of all that is worst in Mein Kampf — and in his public speeches.”[15] | ” |

In July of 2000, Creation Ministries International reported:
“ | For years, many people have scoffed at any suggestion that the evils in society could be linked with the teaching of the theory of evolution. But new research has confirmed what Bible-believers have known all along—that the rising acceptance of Darwin’s theory is related to declining morality in the community.
The research survey of 1535 people, conducted by the Australian National University, revealed that belief in evolution is associated with moral permissiveness. Darwin himself apparently feared that belief in evolution by the common man would lead to social decay. The survey showed that people who believed in evolution were more likely to be in favour of premarital sex than those who rejected Darwin’s theory. Another issue which highlighted the contrast between the effect of evolutionary ideas and that of biblical principles was that Darwinians were reported to be ‘especially tolerant’ of abortion. In identifying the primary factors determining these differences in community attitudes, the author of the research report, Dr Jonathan Kelley, said: ‘The single most important influence after church attendance is the theory of evolution.’[16] |
