The Celluloid Creationist
America has officially given the fuck up. A handful of science museums across the country are passing on some of the latest IMAX films, because they don't want to stir up a controversy by showing them. What kind of statement could be so radical that a museum devoted to understanding the world around us would pass on them?
Oh, just the sentiment that mankind evolved from lesser beings, that's all.
For the love of all that is good and right in the world. How long ago was the Scopes Monkey Trial? And now we've got people in an institute devoted to logical thinking passing on films that discuss a theory that was validated for public consumption eighty years ago, just because some people can't put it together that maybe, just maybe, God helped us evolve.
Ooh ooh. Aah aah.
