to be baseless, even by those who played personal roles in their
elaboration. The claims are not founded on science, but on the be-
lief and prejudice that shaped the theory. Interestingly, none of
these "admissions" from the world of paleontology has been re-
ported in the media. On the contrary, a few media organizations
carefully hide the dilemma that Darwinism has come up against
and instill the deception that new proofs for evolution are discov-

two Ph.D.s, one from Yale University, and one from the
University of California at Berkeley. In his 2000 book, Icons of
Evolution, he outlines this propaganda mechanism:
The general public is rarely informed of the deep-seated uncer-
tainty about human origins that is reflected in these statements by
scientific experts. Instead, we are simply fed the latest version of
somebody's theory, without being told that paleoanthropologists
themselves cannot agree over it. And typically, the theory is illus-

have so many based so much on so little. 38
