IMAX theaters reject film over evolution (Darwin awards candidate)

cnn ^ | March 23

[Truth666]

IMAX theaters in several Southern cities have decided not to show a film on volcanoes out of concern that its references to evolution might offend those with fundamental religious beliefs.

The film, "Volcanoes of the Deep Sea," makes a connection between human DNA and microbes inside undersea volcanoes.

This is definetely a candidate to the true Darwin awards: manufacturing the most devastating lie ever and making people forget that nothing has ever beeen more censored than trying to expose today evolution's grotesque lies.

Nothing like evolution/Creationism threads to generate peace and love amongst Freepers /sarcasm.

Because we do not yet have a unified field theory and a full understanding of subatomic particle bahavior, I doubt that gravity exists.

It's funny how the beginning of the article says Christians would be offended with this flic then you read on and find out its not being shown because it probably wont make money.

Did anyone in that thread SUGGESTED that the reason why they feared so much the fundamentalists was because it's just so obvious that human DNA evolved from microbes in turmoil after deep sea volcanoes?

Is English a second language for you?

I know. I expect this whole article is an attempt to create interest in a boring film by stirring up a little controversy. Yawn...

Thanks for the ping. As Ichneumon has already said, there's an earlier thread on this:
IMAX steers clear of Darwin's theory.

Bingo.

Congratulation, that's what I call a scientific observation. You just noticed yet another example of evolution at work. In this case from head to body. Who says that you need to start deep sea microbes as proof of evolution?

I'm thinking it's a random word generator.

Just like with evolution, I found the truth by chance.

lol... that makes sense.

The Darwinian believing idiots are hard to stop sometimes, but I'm glad to see that some theater managers are taking a stand.

One of the abominations of being brainwashed into evolution: accepting an unprecedented satanic ritual murder - broacasted live nationwide, lasting for days, coming to an end today, 1260 days later
