The following illustration is my favorite, and beautifully summarizes what this book is all about.

On the left we see the foundation of evolution. The castle built upon it is entitled "humanism." Associated with the humanist structure are the issues we have been discussing. On the right we see the foundation of creation, and built upon that is the castle entitled "Christianity." As part of the foundation collapses, the structure starts to collapse. However, on the Christian structure, the cannons are either aimed at each other, aimed nowhere, or aimed at the issues of humanism, but certainly not aimed at the foundation called evolution.

Christians are fighting a war, but they dont know where to fight it or how to aim their guns. This is the real problem. If we want to see the structure of humanism collapse (which any thinking Christian must), then we have to re-aim the cannons at the foundation of evolution. It is only when the foundation is destroyed that the structure will collapse.

You will notice that one cannon is taking potshots at the issues of humanism represented as balloons. Here is another aspect that Christians must consider very carefully. Many might even agree to fight against such issues as abortion, sexual immorality, pornography, and so on. But if we attack only at the level of these issues and not the motivation for their popularity, we are not going to be successful. Even if the laws are changed in our society to outlaw abortion, but the reason abortion has become acceptable (evolution) has not been attacked or destroyed, the next generation will be even more conditioned to evolution and simply change the law again. If the Church wants to be successful in changing societys attitudes toward abortion, pornography, and homosexuality, it is going to have to fight the issue at a foundational level. The foundational basis of evolution needs to be destroyed and the foundational basis of creation restored to its rightful place of importance.

Another way of summing up what is happening is seen in the following illustration.

You can see in the following diagram that the boat "Christianity" has had its hull "SS Creation" holed by torpedoes of "Evolution" from the submarine "Humanism." Notice the ship, "Christianity." The Christians are looking around and endeavoring to discover why the boat is sinking. They are bailing hard, but the boat is sinking faster than they can actually bail. Their mistake lies in not realizing the subversive nature of the attack the ships "foundations" are being shot to pieces.
