Exposing the evolution controversy in public schools
"Creation thinking is at least as scientific as evolution, and evolution thinking is at least as religious as creation as documented in this DVD. It is a good resource for all." - John Morris, President, Institute for Creation Research
"Where do we come from?" This is a question that is fundamental to a student's views on religion, ethics, morality, and even government. In May 2005, the Kansas State Board of Education conducted four days of hearings on science standards designed to promote the teaching of evolution and origins objectively. Twenty-three expert witnesses testified as to the scientific validity surrounding the evolution controversy. This documentary covers the highlights of over 20 hours of recorded testimony from these world-wide experts:
