Rhetorical Essay Question

My Question would be taken from page 156 of Bury the Chains. The claim is that iconic images have such great power because they allow us to see what previously we could barely imagine. I find this quote rite on point, it seems that we live in a world in which we see so much graphic and propaganda that without a visible proof of something we just don;t believe I.E ghosts, aliens and Bigfoot. The fact that people did not pay attention until the "Noah's Arc" diagram was put out just proves that we are a species who need actual proof. That even continues into our court systems today and has led to such famous problems like "If the glove don't fit, the case you must acquit."
