This is a very visual movie. Some of the images are most disturbing and thought provoking. It profiles people who have been expelled or blacklisted from academia for questioning the sacred cow of Darwinism.

The opponents of I.D. say they are closet creationists who want to introduce the Bible. In actuality the I.D. people have simply asked are we the products of intelligent design or chance? Creationists say that while I.D. is a step in the right direction, but it does not go far enough and answer who is the designer.

The Darwinists also try to appeal to the "dumb hillbilly" image saying that no I.D. person has been published in a peer review journal. When one was published the person who approved the publication was forced to resign. Maybe all evolutionists should refuse to have the MRI used on them since much of the pioneering work was done by Raymond Damadian, a creationist. Dr. Damadian was profiled in the book They Made America by Harold Evans.

Darwinists make grandiose claims but do not back them up It was interesting to see the contrast between Richard Dawkins in the movie and Richard Dawkins in a debate with John Lennox. In the movie Dawkins says evolution is a fact. In the debate DVD, Dawkins argued lamely that they have shown how evolution COULD have occurred. Dawkins did not say this is how evolution occurred with absolute certainty.

The evolutionary party line has changed. About thirty years ago life was supposed to have started by a spark zapping some chemicals and creating life. But this proved to be inadequate, so scientists such as Crick, Hoyle and Wickramasinghe postulated that life came from outer space. For some reason, Dawkins was willing to accommodate I.D. claims saying that some alien race may have developed along Darwinian lines and "seeded" the earth. Of course proof of these aliens is not available. Ben Stein commented that Michael Ruse's hypothesis about life growing on crystals was science fiction, not science. One must ask if the model of a spark zapping some chemicals and creating life were proven, why didn't Dawkins and Ruse defend that hypothesis. As a side note why didn't Nobel Prize winner Francis Crick support that model of a spark zapping some chemicals and creating life? Why did he advocate life being sent to earth from space aliens?

Some have said the arguments of creationists and intelligent design people were answered long ago. Those who make such claims are short on specifics. As someone has once said the devil is
