The Dark Spell of Darwinism
A second method of visual effects is used to perpetuate the Darwinist
spell and mislead the public: colorful magazines and striking page designs.
At the start of this chapter, we mentioned the great importance Darwinists
give to appearances in order to portray a scientific aura. People are very in-
fluenced by outer appearances and form their ideas on that basis. Therefore,
Darwinists make the most of technology and all other means at their dis-
posal to persuade the public.
From the point of view of content, these publications are often filled
with complete misinformation but do contain striking layouts designed to
mislead. Every detail has been considered in their formation. For example,
the general appearance, cover design, page layout, colors used on the cover
and the pages, the photographs and the style of language are all prepared
with qualities that the reader will find attractive. The information and top-
ics are presented in an attractive package to awaken trust in the reader.
Hiding behind this mask of striking beauty, the spell will combine with the
other elements to produce the desired effect. The reader won't suspect that
such a magazine or book with its high-quality, authoritative appearance
could propose a theory with no scientific foundation. For this reason alone,
he won't feel it necessary to examine the truth of the theory of evolution for
himself.
Once again, however, we must point out that the rhetorical accounts of
evolutionists decorated with hundreds of fragments of bone labeled in
Latin, and volumes filled with photographs can be completely invalidated
by one plain and concise explanation. For example, a dense three-volume
book with a supposedly scientific appearance can be proven wrong by a
few paragraphs with true scientific value. In fact, as said before, all the in-
formation and accounts presented as scientific proofs in every evolutionist
book are weak and insubstantial enough to be invalidated by a pamphlet
you could fit into your pocket.
