Subject: [tips] Darwin Movie "Creation" Finds a U.S. Distributor
I think that" Creation"is not an appropriate name for a Darwin movie.
"Evolution" would be more appropriate or "How we became what we are".The
title is really a turn off as it implies
that evolutionary processes can be commensurate with biblucal teachings.And
of course the
the psychology behind the title may have something to do in managing
cogbitive dissonance
of both evolutionary and biblical skeptics. Whereas Darwin did have some
acknowledgement of a creator in the last page of the Origin of Species.I
wonder what the sound track would be like.
I hope it does not begin with "In the beginning".Personally I prefer
dinosaur science.especially the idea that the blocking of sunlight not only
killed
the plants but also prevented them from making Vitamin D.
