Why the US is completely screwed up.......
This was going to go in the HATE thread, but I think the stupidity deserves it's own!
| quote: | | A British film about Charles Darwin has failed to find a US distributor because his theory of evolution is too controversial for American audiences, according to its producer. |

| quote: | | Movieguide.org, an influential site which reviews films from a Christian perspective, described Darwin as the father of eugenics and denounced him as "a racist, a bigot and an 1800s naturalist whose legacy is mass murder". His "half-baked theory" directly influenced Adolf Hitler and led to "atrocities, crimes against humanity, cloning and genetic engineering", the site stated. The film, which stars Paul Bettany and his wife, Jennifer Connelly, has sparked fierce debate on US Christian websites, with a typical comment dismissing evolution as "a silly theory with a serious lack of evidence to support it despite over a century of trying". |
What evil! Cloning and genetic engineering! I guess the first years I was teaching last week are going to hell for making glowing bacteria now

Australia does have a distributor, but no release date yet, from what I gather.
So basically, in America you can pretty much make a movie about anything except evolution, because of a certain demographic who are unable to understand science and instead rely on ancient stories.
These are the same people who cried "indoctrinating" when Obama wanted to address the children.....
