This upcoming movie by Ben Stein really caught my attention! It focuses on the hostile academic environment that surrounds Darwinism, evolution, and the theories about the origins of man. In almost of schools and colleges in America, Darwinism or evolution is presented as fact not theory. As this movie so easily points out, there are growing numbers of scientists and biologists that are questioning evolutionary theory. Personally I have always found the theory of evolution to run contrary to the most foundation scientific principles especially the 1st and 2nd Laws of Thermodynamics. The First Law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. The theory of evolution can offer no logical explanation for the origins of energy or matter. Who created what evolved? The Second Law states that "energy systems have a tendency to increase their entropy." Entropy in layman's language means chaos or disorganization. Simply stated it means that things get worse not better. The entire concept of evolution is based on the foundation that things are slowly yet surely getting better. Life is evolving into more complex forms. The Second Law says that isn't how things work. If you have some free time go ahead and visit www.expelledthemovie.com and check out the trailer, I'm sure you will find it intriguing.
