One major tool in the power of persuasion used by supporters of Darwinism is the suggestion that an idea is incomprehensible. These dema-gogues try to impress by using terms and Latin names that many people can-not understand; their impenetrable style employs dizzying logic and strange, irrelevant examples. The method behind all of this is the bewitching principle of "incomprehensibility."
Their writings and lectures string words together in such a way that many cannot understand them; their effect on people is just like that of a sor-cerer using strange magic words as he conjures a spell. Their incomprehen-sibility is even accepted as a sign of the authors’ breadth of knowledge, power and virtue; and this impact increases with the obscurity of their words. The scientist who speaks or writes in the most opaque manner is touted as the most brilliant.
This ploy that evolutionists use especially in titles of their articles, is why so many people say from the start that they could not possibly under-stand such lofty knowledge. As examples, here are the titles of some of their articles:
"Crystal structure of the hereditary haemochromatosis protein HFE complexed with transferrin receptor"
"An electroneutral sodium/bicarbonate cotransporter NBCn1 and asso-ciated sodium channel"
"Glycosylation of Nucleocytoplasmic Proteins: Signal Transduction and O-GlcNAc"
All the subjects indicated in the titles above are of course serious topics deserving of scientific investigation. It may be quite appropriate to use such
terms in an appropriate place. But using such words won’t help evolution-ists get around their great impasse, for many other basic questions stand in the way of their theory that evolutionists have to answer, but cannot.
Evolutionists must especially answer how the first cells and first living creatures came into being. Where did the mind-bogglingly sophisticated systems within a cell come from? And how did the imaginary transition from sea to land occur? Alternatively, they must explain what clear proofs there are for such matters as the supposed evolution of human beings, the origin of the extraordinary designs in animals, the source of self-sacrifice and intelligent behavior in living creatures. They must also give concrete proof for their claims about the gradual formation of structures like DNA, eyes and wings; about the development over time of cells’ ability of to syn-thesize proteins flawlessly, and of blood to clot. As yet, no evolutionist has come forward to present any clear, concrete proof of these most basic mat-ters regarding the formation of living creatures. When you examine their lectures, books and articles, you will see that, when required to explain these matters, they try to divert attention by hiding them behind countless scientific terms, Latin words and sentences that ordinary people cannot un-derstand.
Taking this point of view, we can see that the theory of evolution is a word game based on empty talk, interesting inferences, guesses and sup-positions. It relies on long philosophical excursions and repetition of words that serve only to keep people from thinking. From the few titles of articles listed above, you can see that it is a word game based on incomprehensibil-ity.
Evolutionists believe that they will reach their goals by using such methods, thinking they’ve given the impression of stating something in a highly scientific style. However, they are benefiting only from the fact that the general public knows very little about scientific matters.
To bring even more clarity to the matter, we can cite George Stavropoulos, a proponent of the theory of evolution, from an article he

wrote in the journal American Scientist:
Yet, under ordinary conditions, no complex organic molecule can ever form spontaneously, but will rather disintegrate, in agreement with the second law. Indeed, the more complex it is, the more unstable it will be, and the more assured, sooner or later, its disintegration. Photosynthesis and all life processes, and even life itself, cannot yet be understood in terms of thermo-dynamics or any other exact science, despite the use of confused or deliber-ately confusing language.46
To give their theory a scientific tone, evolutionists adorn their unsubstantial writings with incomprehensible
words, as these texts show.

ccording to Darwinist principles, to lend a scientific appearance to a given topic, the first attribute is "coldness." Evolutionists try to make their books seem heavy, gloomy and cold. They arrange their books' cover designs and content so as to make them seem hard to read and understand. Their illustrations and pictures are usually incomprehensi-ble drawings and vague pictures consisting of abstract shapes, incompre-hensible bone fragments and stones. Plenty of complex graphics and nu-merical calculations, they believe, will make their works appear more so-phisticated. In this way, they hope to convey the impression that evolution is "scientific," but that people cannot comprehend this, due to their lack of knowledge.incomprehensible contents.
The purpose is to make these books look as if they con-tained abstruse scientific knowledge. Complicated graphics and obscure
mathe-Stavropoulos clearly states that some explanations given by evolutionist scientists are complex and deliberately convoluted. Moreover, he openly ad-mits that no branch of science can cast light on the processes of life.
Uncovering these Darwinist games and tactics is no doubt important for those who don’t know much about the matter and puts a heavy respon-sibility on those who are aware of how evolutionists use the power of sug-gestion. Carrying out this responsibility is one obvious way to remove the lies and fabrications blocking advances in the scientific world.
