on a philosophically neutral assessment of the evidence.
Separate the philosophy from science, and the proud tower
collapses. When the public understands this clearly,
Lewontin's Darwinism will start to move out of the science
curriculum and into the department of intellectual history,
where it can gather dust on the shelf next to Lewontin's

Evolutionists have literally pressured the scientific world.
Scientific publications constantly issue biased interpretations, in
which, the theory of evolution is portrayed as established fact.
The popular media, which has a great influence over a wide pub-
lic, reports irrelevant findings and subjects as if they were new
proofs of evolution. These reports distort the true facts, and mis-
lead the public. The schools and universities of a great many
countries support Darwinist academics, and make efforts to ob-
struct the careers of scientists who believe in God. Since they re-
ject Darwinism, their books and articles do not get published, and
they are inaccurately accused of "backwardness." If scientists in
most Western countries want to pursue academic careers, they are
obliged to turn a blind eye to Darwinist nonsense or even to sup-
port it against their will. Otherwise, it is very difficult to rise in
one's academic career or even enjoy tenure in a university.
Professor of Biochemistry Michael Behe describes how mate-

ably passes through a rigid materialistic filter before it reaches to
the general public." 39
This attitude of Darwinists is also clearly described by the
evolutionist Frank Harold in his book The Way of the Cell:
