Marketing Creation Science to the Public

The general public is mostly uninformed about science. Fossil discovery announcements in the media often include “millions of years” and the general public accepts these time scales because they are generally uninformed about science and tend to give credit to scientists just because they have an advanced degree next to their name. However, if creationists could reach out to the general public, the message of the young earth could be spread to larger audiences. This has occurred as the internet has allowed creationist literature and information to be spread over large audiences. Creationists could spread their message with better marketing strategies.
One way that creationists could market their message is by finding celebrities and major media outlets to endorse creationism. There are many celebrities that would be interested in promoting creation science but creationists must reach out to them. Evolutionists accomplish this with the “Big Bang Theory” television show, Bill Nye “The Science Guy,” the mainstream media and the print media. With the abundant evidence for creation science that exists, many celebrities and distinguished individuals would likely endorse creation science.
As the popularity of creation science has grown in the last 50 years, more institutions promoting creation science have been established. Some of these institutions operate media outlets, such as print publications and websites with text and streaming video. Some of the larger creationist institutions have opened museums that attract young people and visitors of all ages. A growing number of institutions incorporate material that supports the 6,000 year-old earth and the Genesis Flood.
