 Evolution (2001)
IMDB rating: 5.70
Plot: Glen Canyon, Arizona, the present day. Wayne, practising at night in the desert for his upcoming fireman’s exam, witnesses the impact of a meteorite. The next day, biology teacher Dr. Ira Kane and geology teacher Harry Block from Glen Canyon Community College manage to get to the meteorite, which is stuck in the ground at the bottom of a cave. By taking a sample, they discover a slimy blue fluid coming out of the meteorite. A little later, Ira Kane finds out that myriads of single-celled life-forms dwell in the fluid, evolve at an incredible rate, even while he’s watching. What first seems like a sure ticket to Sweden for the Nobel Prize soon develops into a nightmare: By evolving and adapting at that unbelievably fast rate, the Aliens start spreading out, and the Military comes in. Now it all comes down to what Darwin so rightfully stated: Survival of the fittest. And no good idea in sight…

Should the Big Bang and evolution be taught alongside creationism in church?
Shouldn’t congregations be made aware of other theories?
No, church is for fairy tales, don’t be silly.
Spyro, Destroyer of Sheep | Dec 09, 2009
Creationism can be taught in some sort of world religions class and Big Bang can be taught in the science class…. whats the fucking problem?
Mr. Peter | Dec 09, 2009
Haha, I wish, but I don’t see that happening.
Don't Take Me Seriously | Dec 09, 2009
No, science has no place in religious institutions, they should be separate.
Arch-human Mitchell | Dec 09, 2009
Devil lies have no place in a house of Holy worship!
Wearing a Martyr's Crown | Dec 09, 2009
Then creationism should be taught alongside the big bang in schools. Tit for tat
Sagitarius167 | Dec 09, 2009
Bravo…
What’s good for the goose…
interested1208 | Dec 09, 2009
Spyro’s right.

No, because they still aren’t allowed to teach creationism in school. If we start teaching creationism in school then maybe it would be allowed.
Santa Exodia | Dec 09, 2009
it’d be a wasted effort, most lack the intellectual capacity to understand it
CumquatMay | Dec 09, 2009
No. Because evolution is talked about in school it shouldn’t be in Church. Its to keep church and state seperate.
B r e e | Dec 09, 2009
If they do that without any lame attempts to mock it so that dumb people think it didn’t happen then I will vote that creationism can be taught in school with Evolution and cosmic theory.
loveface | Dec 09, 2009
Creationism shouldn’t be taught anywhere.
Anyone who reads Genesis as an historical account is missing the point by 10 000 miles.
Now if you can find a way to force evolution into churches, I say go for it. Can’t hurt.
TheKitten | Dec 09, 2009
The Big Bang Theory and evolution are science, not religion. They should not be taught in church any more than creationism should be taught in a science classroom.
Alice in R&S Land | Dec 09, 2009
No. What kind of question is this? Church is for religion, not science. School is for science, not religion. Schools and churches are separate institutions for a reason.
taylerrr | Dec 09, 2009
There’s sort of an unspoken rule between the scientific community, and fundamentalists:
As long as belief is kept out of science classrooms, thought will be kept out of churches.
Bill K Atheist Goodfella | Dec 09, 2009
No, and Creationism has no place in Academia except to be shown a s a crass political technique to unduly introduce doubt into the teaching of scientific theory.
Doubt in science is essential as it drives research and where warranted revision.
Doubt as practiced by Creationists is a virus of illogical conclusions couched in the lexicon of the very thing it seeks to undermine.
Joe | Dec 09, 2009
I have already been taught along with these topics in church. "Big Bang" is just a theory but Evolution can be proven to be true. Did you know that "half" of all the Scientists are believers in God? I have 3 Scientist friends and one brother in-law [Nuclear Physicist] who are Christians.
guraqt2me | Dec 10, 2009
the big bang theory is more ridiculous than creation theory - a massive universe just suddenly came into being??? that’s harder to believe than the god theory
Harley Drive | Dec 10, 2009
Big bang = God spoke and BANG it happened,
Evolution = adaptation.
Any theory that does not acknowledge Gods handywork would never(or should never) be preached (or allowed to be preached) in a Bible believing congregation.
Douglas A | Dec 10, 2009
Congregations of believers barely have time these days to study the Word of God. That is evident by the way people are living. Raping, robbing, killing, gettn stoned, domestic violence. These theories of BIG BANG and EVOLUTION are spoken of in many a sermon. But taught is not the description of it.
If everyone was made aware of other theories, would that make people live upright and holy? NA
JUSTOP | Dec 10, 2009
As soon as God is taught in biology, how is that? For should not those who have not heard of Jesus hear of him as well.
bless you.
big bang- God spoke and bang it happened, we are OK with that.
krazyabouthim | Dec 10, 2009
In church yes, but not in schools.
Forward | Dec 10, 2009
Heck, no! They claim that Creationism is a science, but that Evolution has to be taken on faith and is therefore more of a religious belief. So logically, they should teach evolution and leave Creationism for the Science classes, right?
Ryunyo | Dec 10, 2009
no
since the big band and evolution are a lie and not the truth
God's servant | Dec 10, 2009
Since the purpose of going to church is to re-affirm your faith, to celebrate your faith, I’m not sure that there would be much demand for lessons in cosmology or evolutionary biology. Besides, if the churches start teaching science, Christians would probably be even more insistent that creationism be taught in science classes.
Your secondary question about making congregations "aware of other theories" implies that creationism is a theory: it isn’t, creationism is a dogma. The point about a theory is that it is open to amendment (or replacement) in the light of new evidence, but there is no possible evidence that would cause creationists to abandon their belief in the literal truth of Genesis.
Edward | Dec 10, 2009
nothing should be taught just offerd but yeah and i dont understand why people think evolution dismisses god by god i mean an inteligent creator
billy sastard | Dec 10, 2009
yes.. i think it should.. all the theories should be presented for the kid to choose for his or herself.
Educate them - then it’s up to them
Mudkip girl | Dec 10, 2009
They shouldn’t have to.
Church isn’t a science class. The church can discuss the theories if they want, but they don’t have to.
