GGG, if you had done just a little research you would have seen that the cancellation of Darwin’s Dilemma was due to the fact that the Discovery Institute violated the rental agreement by issuing this press release http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS135002+05-Oct-2009+PRN20091005 without obtaining the necessary approval from the California Science Center.

PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS:
It is required that the Event Services Office approve, for technical and factual accuracy, all promotional materials mentioning the California Science Center produced for your event (including invitations, programs, press releases, etc.) prior to printing or broadcast. Please allow sufficient time for this approval.

So since they violated the contract that they signed the event was cancelled. No censorship here, just the usual distortion, and misdirection.

But why lets the fact’s get in the way of a good story? Doesn’t the 9th commandment say something about bearing false witness?

You should study the 9th Commandment a little more carefully, and then look in the mirror. It was not the Discovery Institute that was putting the even on, it was the American Freedom Alliance.

I wonder if any other event ever got cancelled because of this kind of thing. It it's happened in the past but no cancellation ensured, then that would imply that there was some political "stuff" going on in this case.

:::shrug::: I just don't care enough to research that, so I guess we'll never know.

It looks very much like the press release was from the Discovery Institute not The Freedom Alliance. so who contracted for the showing?

[tpanther]

Can you present any evidence where this has happened before?
