War of the Worldviews

Thank you Ben Stein! It's about time a thought provoking film made it to the main stream. My family went and saw this documentary yesterday afternoon and we were thrilled. It's not everyday that you get to see a balanced, well made film that doesn't cram the Humanistic worldview down your throat. Yes, this film is based on the raging war between the Theory of Evolution and the Theory of Intelligent Design. But what I really appreciated about this movie was the fact that it touched on the root cause of this struggle. A war of worldviews. In one corner Humanism, in the other Christianity. Why though in our schools do we not allow two differing view points concerning science? An honest discussion of all sides of the issue. I thought that we wanted to give our children a well rounded education. Well it can't be well rounded and complete if they only hear one side of the story. Are we saying that we are not smart enough to weigh the evidence and decide for ourselves? Do we have to be told what to do? And if Intelligent Design didn't have a valid point, why then do evolutionists play pop goes the weasle everytime they smell a hint of it? If you haven't seen this film go see it. Here's the website where they have more great stuff - http://www.expelledthemovie.com

P.S. - I believe in the "big bang theory," God spoke and BANG!, it happened.
