Mojoey just did another rebuttal of the "Argument from Stalin." It occured to me that there's a much better rebuttal to be made:
1) Stalin was a mass murderer.
2) Stalin rejected Dawinian evolution. (Yup, that's right: he endorsed Lysenkoism)
3) Creationists reject Darwinian evolution.
4) Therefore, creationism will lead to mass murder.
This is of course tongue-in-cheeck, but rhetorically, it would probably work better than an abstract discussion of guilt-by-association.

How's it feel to be slashed by the cutting edge of reason?
Irony is dead. Irony remains dead. And we have killed it...
I think you've done enough killing.
You murderer. I feel so betrayed.
So the haircut's supposed to be ironic now?
Ot:
Stalin was a mass murderer.
Stalin had dark hair.
Therefore people with dark hair are mass murderers.

1) Stalin was a mass murderer
2) Stalin's name can be translated as "Man of Steel"
