"struggle between faith and reason"

Faith and reason live in harmany if you love the truth and pursue it. There is only a conflict if you are afraid of examining the veracity of your own beleifs.

“only 39 per cent of Americans believe in the theory of evolution”

Sounds fishy to me ... Especially in misusing the word “believe.”

So far as I’m concerned, beliefs belong in church.

And Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey?

Americans are said to be the world’s best consumers and that includes being the world’s best at rejecting inferior products, including inferior ideological doctrines like evoloserism. Other than that, Christians and others are correct in noting that Chuck Darwin’s theory is primarily responsible for the 200M - 300M dead bodies lying around due to communism, naziism, and two world wars.

Darwin had no ‘faith’ - only religious association.

Jennifer Connelly - the Alma Mahler Gropius Werfel of cinema...

Movieguide.org, an influential site which reviews films from a Christian perspective, described Darwin as the father of eugenics and denounced him as "a racist, a bigot and an 1800s naturalist whose legacy is mass murder". His "half-baked theory" directly influenced Adolf Hitler and led to "atrocities, crimes against humanity, cloning and genetic engineering", the site stated.

I would think that artificial selection was the influence for eugenics, not natural selection. And when it came to influencing a murderous rage against Jews, nobody was bigger than Martin Luther.

Charles Darwin film 'too controversial for religious America'

As though we'd be surprised. Charles Darwin was the Rosa Parks of a group of naturalists that was looking for someone who proposed something that sounded "scientific," aleatory, and automatic enough to relegate God's purposeful relation to nature to a place of irrelevance. Many in the movement weren't too thrilled over Darwin then but agreed that he was, at that time, their best shot.

Well, he was the father of Leonard Darwin, for example. And his cousin coined the word "eugenics". Maybe eugenics runs in the Darwin germplasm.
