Wallace Johnson - The Death of Evolution (with Supplemental Reading: Favorite Prayers to Our Lady) [Illustrated]

By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth: gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him. For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created.

Psalm 32:6-9

I understand sincere evolutionists; I was one. I do not understand those who not only will not listen to counterargument, but would prevent others from listening.

Ten years ago, to humor a friend, I read Father OConnells Science of Today and The Problems of Genesis . My belief in evolution disintegrated, accompanied by anger that a whole counter-argument had been kept from me for so long. At the same time I began to discern evolutions potential threat to religion. I resolved to equip myself to help others to hear the counter-argument which was being so effectively suppressed.

I studied and lectured and learned. The lecture, The Case Against Evolution, grew to a two-hour session, and it was recorded. The recording was converted into a booklet in 1976 by Miss Paula Haigh, who was conducting the Catholic Center For Creation Research in America. To my extreme surprise, the modest printing was well received. It was reprinted in Australia in 1979. Out of that booklet has come this small book. It involved a complete rewriting of the original, and enlarging it with so much additional material that the result is a different book.

With gratitude I acknowledge the personal effort of Miss Haigh, without which the original text would not have seen print. Also, I acknowledge the collaboration of Mr. A.W. Mehlert of Brisbane, who has authored articles in the Creation Research Society Quarterly and the Bible Science Newsletter . His specialized research, especially in the increasingly confused field of ape-men, was most helpful. Acknowledged, too, is the help received from the anonymous ones: illustrators, typists, and those who helped bridge the financial gap for publishing costs.

There is now a massive literature by anti-evolution scientists, and it is hoped that this book will provide a digest of their overall case in an easily readable form for lay peopleand for experts, too, if interested.

Every attack on the Christian faith made today has, as its basis, the doctrine of evolution. (Newman Watts, author of Britain Without God ).

More than a century ago, in England, an Anglican bishops wife said: I do hope that what Mr. Darwin is saying is not true; and if it is, I hope it does not become generally known.

Today the wheel has turned. Instead of the bishops wife, it is now Darwinists who are worried, because creation scientists have shown that evolution is false. The Darwinists, in their turn, are hoping that this does not become generally known. The evolution-biased mass media is ensuring that it does not become known.

The dominance of evolution ideas deadened belief in Divine Creation and supernatural religion. So was born the phenomenon of the 20th-century, the secular man . Well-educated; inured to evolution; often a very decent person; but he never thinks of God.

An atheist, Renan, predicted that the collapse of the supernatural would lead to the collapse of moral convictions. Evolutions naturalism has ousted supernaturalism, and we can see moral convictions collapsing. The Christian culture is crumbling; and the Post-Christian era has begun. That is the final fruit of evolutionism.

In 1859, Professor Sedgwick of Cambridge warned Darwin that, through his evolution ideas, Humanity would suffer a damage that might brutalize it and sink the human race into a lower state of degradation than any into which it has fallen since its written records tell us of its history.
