THE SKULLS THAT DEMOLISH DARWIN
patiently built up on nature, evolution, our origins and our place in the universe.” This extract
from the report set out the real reason for this concern: that Darwinism is being kept alive be-
cause of the supposed scientific support it gives to materialism. The collapse of Darwinism
means materialism and atheism are deprived of one of their most important props. Indeed, the
report stated that the teaching of Creation rocked the world view, in other words materialism,
that had been “patiently built up.” Article 12 of the report referred to Adnan Oktar’s anti-
Darwinist activities and to the impact of his Atlas of Creation in Europe, saying that no other
work to date had had such a major effect.
Article 57 read:
The Harun Yahya offensive: In early 2007, the Turkish creationist Harun Yahya sent his work
entitled The Atlas of Creation to a very large number of French schools and resource centers .
. . He [Hervé LeGuyader] considers the book to be “Much more dangerous than the previous
creationist initiatives, which were often of Anglo-Saxon origin.” He believes that . . . the meth-
od employed by the author could “PROVE HIGHLY EFFECTIVE in the case of an uninformed
public . . . .”
The report ended with the words, “If we are not careful, the values that are the very essence of
the Council of Europe will be in danger of being di-
rectly threatened by the Creationist fundamentalists.
It is part of the role of the Council’s parliamentarians
to react before it is too late.” The report’s main aim
was to ban the teaching of the fact of Creation. This
demand—a violation of democracy, fundamental hu-
man rights and intellectual freedom—shed light on an
important truth: European materialists are in a state
of complete panic. Circles keen to maintain the mate-
rialist domination of science are unable to defend
Darwinism in intellectual terms.
In fact, however, prohibiting ideas does no good:
Ideas must be opposed by other ideas. In any climate
in which ideas of all kinds can be freely expressed,
reason, good conscience and common sense will
prevail. And the reality to which reason, good con-
science and common sense
all point is Creation.
