Expelled: A Review
I recently went to see Ben Stein's Movie Expelled. We went on Sunday with the Youth Group. It was definitely worth seeing. There were a few things that I took with me mentally as I left the theater. The first was the amount of passion, anger and scoffing the evolutionists had toward those in their profession who would dare evoke Intelligent Design as a viable option to evolution. The other was that those who were evolutionists/atheists at one point may have believed in God but, had that thought destroyed by the theory of evolution. Evolution is not merely a theory but a "religion" that works completely against what the Bible says about the formation of all we see around us. It's based on Materialism and the lie the serpent gave Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The lie is that we as humans could become like gods knowing good and evil. So ultimately evolution states there is no God and that we as humans are the ultimate authority of our lives. In essence we are the gods of our own lives, we make the rules and do what we wish.
There were some pointed questions that were directed to the evolutionist as to what was the catalyst that brought about the cell. They had no answers, just suggestions such as coming from the backs of crystals or as Richard Dawkins suggested, aliens that could have "seeded" the world we live in.
Dawkins suggests that there is freedom in his choice to reject the Judeo Christian God. I believe instead there is bondage and eventual destruction.
