Don’t you think that you should see the film before you start disagreeing with the science?

But BOTH frauds must be fully exposed and debunked = so thank you for all your posts and for those who are working hard to do just that.,,,God bless these efforts!

Paradoxically, most of the evidence that cyclic global warming is a natural process and not antropgenic is from over 6000 years ago.

Darwin didn’t write on creation, and didn’t provide a creation myth.

Sure he did. He wrote a creation myth for those who wish to reject God and have a God free world and explanation of how we got here.

He did explain what otherwise requires a combination of special creation and special delivery...

And how do you know he's right? Was anyone there to actually observe the things he speculated on?

“What’s wrong? Nudity? Foul language? Violence?”

If the film had all that there would be no question about showing it, probably rent free.

I saw a few stills. Looks like a well done production. It’s one thing to read about the Islands but good photography brings another dimension to the story.

Importantly the opposition to Darwinism can be aired despite the self appointed censors.

From the 1300+ premier that C-Y-C referenced above:

The evening opened with a magnanimous introduction by Senator Hank Erwin, who introduced a number of the dignitaries present including Alabama Supreme Court Justice Tom Parker, and was followed by a brief commentary from Doug Phillips who reminded the audience that while “evolutionists, atheists and agnostics around the world of many stripes are celebrating what they believe to be the victory of Darwin on this anniversary night, we are here to proclaim that Jesus Christ is the creator who reigns victorious over the vain speculations of science, so-called.”

It's going to be hard to make the case for First Amendment violation if there's nothing stopping you from seeing the film if you want to.

“rivaling any National Geographic/Discovery film IMHO”
Except for the Science part...

I take most emphatic exception to that statement.
After more than 15 years as a subscriber, I quit the NG when it became clear that it was embracing strange subjects, that were in no way connected to "National" or "Geography;" Certainly not science!
That is was not the only science magazine so afflicted is small comfort.

I have not read a NG in over 15 years, so I have no way of knowing how thoroughly it bought into the "Global Warming" fraud, as just one recent example.

Don’t you think that you should see the film before you start disagreeing with the science?

There are two identifiable groups which will never turn to reason, because their minds are like concrete: all mixed up and permanently set; The sexual perverts and the abortion promoters/industry.

So your forlorn suggestion is most likely to fall on deaf ears.

The question was never about seeing the film but about the right of the film makers to be treated equally by a tax supported institution. If renters who express other view points, including Darwinist, can rent a public place, why should the creationists be refused?

It’s called freedom of speech not freedom of watching.
