Page 77 - The Dark Spell of Darwinism

Harun Yahya - Adnan Oktar

to The Long War Against God by Henry M. Morris, noted for his works
demonstrating the invalidity of the theory of evolution:
How did belief in Darwinism become so widespread when it was developed
mainly by an apostate divinity student (Darwin), a lawyer (Lyell), an agricul-
turist (Hutton), a journalist (Chambers), and other non-scientists? 37
There is only one answer to why the theory of evolution has become so
widespread: because of special techniques, tactics and illusions of propa-
ganda.
In order to make themselves and others believe this idea, they cast a
kind of spell using methods that we'll examine in detail in the following
pages. Just like spell-casters, they use "magic" words to impress their delu-
sions on people's minds; and hypnotize people with pictures and written
texts that are impossible for laymen to understand. With all this, they keep
people from thinking, investigating and researching for themselves. Just as
a sorcerer looks for assistance in the various exotic props, complicated
words and miniature texts used in casting a spell, evolutionists look to
chance events, fossil bone structures and the impact of authoritative words
and sentences. In this way, they attempt to influence people to accept pre-
posterous inferences and to place them under the power of suggestion.
Darwinists do everything in their power to perpetuate this dark spell.
Afraid that people will see the truth that the theory of evolution is a myth
and change their minds, they employ a persuasive image to convince peo-
ple with what they say and write, how they appear and how they act. As
pointed out earlier, this spell's suggestiveness spreads into every moment of
our daily lives: in the morning newspaper, on billboards, in school text-

books, in films and television documentaries.
It will be useful to show all the aspects of these methods of persuasion
in order to bring them to people's attention; to help individuals become
aware of the various scenes in the scenario enveloping the world they live
in. In the following pages, we'll offer some examples of the main rules gov-
erning the evolutionists' use of the power of suggestion.
