Toward the end of his life, famed Christian apologist and author C.S. Lewis wished that he had attacked and exposed evolution as “the central and radical lie in the whole web of falsehood that governs our lives.” In a 1951 letter to Captain Bernard Acworth of the Evolution Protest Movement, Lewis said he could confirm its deception from the vigor with which evolution’s defenders denied any alternative – “the fanatical and twisted attitudes of its defenders.”
Indeed, there is a vehement censorship of creationist and even intelligent design arguments by academia. In doing so, they display the “fanatical and twisted attitudes” that C.S. Lewis observed over a half-century ago.
Insults, ridicule, and censorship is the norm for many defenders of evolution. The Bible tells us about the “worldly bias” against which we are to be “salt and light”, preserving spiritual life and exposing spiritual darkness. Institutionalized denial of the One True God certainly qualifies as spiritual darkness. It is this denial – through the “central and radical lie” of evolution – that Creation Moments works day and night to expose.
