Page 22 - The Dark Spell of Darwinism

A s we said in the last chapter, evolution is a theory that flies in

the face of logic and common sense. Science has invalidated
it. But because it supplies atheist philosophies with a sup-
posedly scientific foundation, it has found support among many scien-
tists, and its propaganda has influenced masses of people. This influence,
which we characterize as a "spell," is so powerful that even intelligent, in-
formed people have not been able to escape it. Many have come to accept
incredibly illogical propositions that even a child could see through—and
they defend these propositions with great fervor.
One noted critic of the theory
of evolution is Phillip E. Johnson.
In his book Defeating Darwinism by
Opening Minds, he says that evolu-
tionists accept Darwin's proposi-
tions without having thought
about them beforehand and have
never considered what they
mean.
My experience speaking and debat-
Philip E. Johnson and the cover of his ing on this topic at universities has
book criticizing the theory of evolution.
