An influential group of people spread scientific ideas.

You are trying to paint them to be evil conspirators who converted the saintly creationist scientists to their evil ways, or forced them to submit so that they could have some career success.
Did I say they converted any saintly people at all? I take it back. Sorry.

Sorry but that doesn't fly. It's a silly fantasy in your head.
See above. I'm sorry. I don't recall saying it, but if you say I did... better safe than sorry, I s'pose. Telling lies is a nasty habit.

I'll say again: this is all irrelevant. Evolution explains the evidence. No one has yet produced a model which explains it better. Most scientists will also have concluded this. No conspiracy theories required.
Say it again and again and again. Say it as many times as your religion requires. Find a mirror and mesmerize yourself with it. The rest of us will give up our research when we decide it's time. You don't set our schedule. You may be closer to the Royal Society than the rest of us, you may be better connected with them. We're not intimidated!

"To Compel A Man To Furnish Funds For The Propagation Of Ideas He Disbelieves And Abhors Is Sinful And Tyrannical." - Thomas Jefferson

"And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with his wrath?" - Thomas Jefferson
