Matthew (Chapman), just because you are the great-great grandson of Charles Darwin does not mean you have to follow in his footsteps. There is evidence for the historical Jesus Christ, including his life, death, and resurrection. I would recommend reading “The Case for Christ” by Lee Strobel for an initial overview of the evidence.
Matthew Chapman’s “The Ledge” should not be considered a landmark movie for the atheist movement in any way. Actually, I do not think there will ever be a landmark atheist movie. This is simply because the common public understands that belief in a god ultimately is not the product of dramatic theological persuasion but of authentic faith. Trying to sway people towards atheism with a one-sided script, such as in “The Ledge”, is contrived and comes across as ridiculous to the audience.
Matthew Chapman’s 2011 movie “The Ledge” was just a relatively pricey attempt to make authentic Christians look foolish and atheists wise and compassionate.
what language is offensive? the word "sex" ? how ridiculous.. And why are we even still having this debate about evolution vs. creationism? One one hand you have science and fact, on the other superstition and bigotry.

Forget Darwin. Most of his ideas have been discredited and "evolutionary theory" is just that, constantly changing. The main reason so many people accepted Darwin's ideas is because the idea of God interfered with mankind's sexual mores. Evolution as currently propogated is statistically impossible.
No I will not. You make a volley of unsubstantiated statements denying a vast body if modern science. Further, you mistakenly expect it to comprise a cohesive argument. You've made a declaration, now back it with facts. This is how science has arrived at evolution by natural selection as being the most supported theory for life's development on this planet. Science comprised of over 100 years analyzing the multiple streams of evidence, chemistry, paleontology,geology, genetics, rad dating, etc.
Oh, and my preferences regarding sexual _morays_ has nothing to do with this question. Why do theists always seem so obsessed with sex and inflicting their ideas regarding it upon one's private life?
stovall1- Just how do you figure Darwin has been "discredited" when you yourself cannot empirically prove the existence of god or creation aka "intelligent design"? I've often found that the most religious people are the ones who've had the most problems with their sex drives.... Jimmy Swaggart.... Ted Haggard... what charlatans they were and are.
