What about Stephen Jay Gould, a historian of science who has known for decades about Haeckel's faked em-

bryo drawings? All that time, students passing through Gould's classes were learning biology from textbooks
that probably used Haeckel's embryos as evidence for evolution. Yet Gould did nothing to correct the situa-
tion until another biologist complained about it in 1999. Even then, Gould blamed textbook-writers for the

mistake, and dismissed the whistle-blower (a Lehigh University biochemist) [Michael J. Behe] as a creationist.
Who bears the greatest responsibility here- textbook-writers who mindlessly recycle faked drawings, people
who complain about them, or the world-famous expert who watches smugly from the sidelines while his col-
leagues unwittingly become accessories to what he himself calls the 'academic equivalent of murder'?

The revelation that the peppered moth story is flawed came only recently compared to the truth about
Haeckel’s embryos, so perhaps some textbook-writers can be excused for continuing to use it. Yet every bi-
ologist who works on peppered moths has known for over a decade that moths don’t rest on tree trunks and

the textbook photographs have been staged. Many biology textbooks carry photographs of light and dark
peppered moths on tree trunks to illustrate this famous story. Yet biologists have known for over a decade
that the story has problems. 143

The way that Darwinists misappropriate science and, furthermore, give the impression they are
maintaining and preserving it, is in and of itself a huge deception. In fact, contrary to what it claims,
Darwinism acts in complete violation of science. It tries to cover up the scientific evidence. It makes

claims that contradict the results of laboratory experiments. Even though the fossil record proves that
transitional forms never existed, they still propagate the lie that living things evolved in such a way as
to leave countless intermediate forms behind them. Scientific fraud is a concept born with Darwinism.

Darwinists misuse science museums and scientific publications and deliberately present frauds to peo-
ple. They use scientific books and journals to spread the myth of evolutionary history, something that
never happened. They draw a picture of a life form that never existed and try to give the impression that
“this is our past.” This religion, diametrically opposed to science, tells one of the worst lies ever under
a scientific mask.

The reason why Darwinists support such a terrible lie is without doubt their blind devotion to the
way of the antichrist. The system of the antichrist is a perverse one that leads people to untruth.

8. Darwinists misuse the written and visual media

The written and visual media are the most important tools of the conditioning that works on so
many people. In the same way that they believe everything that scientists tell them, some people also at-

tach the same credence to authors in scientific journals and reports on TV. Any pro-Darwinist piece in
any well-known Darwinist journal is sufficient evidence for the majority of readers. People consider that
a scientific journal that published the false evidence of Darwinism must necessarily be telling the truth.
The majority of people are unaware that the journal in question is one of the devoted adherents of the

false religion that is Darwinism. They are also unaware that when the false religion that is Darwinism is
espoused, there can be no reason, logic, truth or scientific method.
Under the influence of the Darwinist dictatorship, many scientific journals today are pro-Darwinist.
It is unacceptable for any publication opposed to Darwinism to appear and enjoy general acceptance.

That is why the majority of readers or viewers immediately sign up to the reports that Darwinists issue
in the publications they support.
But this is a grave error.
Darwinists’ sole aim is propaganda. They act out of the idea that the majority of readers will harbor

no doubts about a deceptive report regarding evolution in New Scientist or National Geographic. That is
also the position of people who never even consider the possibility that a scientific journal such as
Nature would play host to a lie and never properly think about what they learn. But that state of affairs
creates such fertile ground in terms of Darwinist propaganda that they are even able to convince people
