Frankly I'm glad someone is speaking out on this issue, although he will be widely criticized I'm sure. To me it is much easier and logical to believe in creation than to believe that this is all some random act. I am a Christian, however I don't begrudge anyone their own beliefs, and I never try to force my opinions or Faith on others. My problem is that the belief in a creator is not allowed in our schools and is being slowly removed from the national consciousness. I don't agree with Darwinism and I feel that its as much a religion or faith based idea as Christianity. That being the case I only think its fair that both be discussed in our Schools and people allowed to make their own choice. Sadly as I'm sure this film will point out, that is not the case. I'm not even talking about issues like prayer in schools etc. I just think that if you're going to allow one Idea then you should allow the other.

You know that even mentioning creation or intelligent design in school is tantamount to teaching religion, don't you? How dare anyone even think about indoctrinating impressionable children with this garbage? Those inbred, zombie, religious bigots are only trying to push their own view of religion on our young. Don't they know that a vast majority of parents don't even want their children to know the term "creation"?

You know the red herring that will get thrown out there, don't you? It goes something like this...

"Well, if you're going to allow creation, then you have to allow all views and that just leads to confusion."

Yep! and my problem with that is, the only one that isn't allowed now is creation.

You mean like the human genome is 98.7% identical to that of a chimp? The human genome is also 35% identical to a daffodil. Are you willing to admit that humans are not 35% identical to daffadils?
