==Darwinism==

The movie describes Darwinism as a brilliant theory for the 19th century, but hints some of the many holes in Darwin's work.  For example, modern science has uncovered some aspects of the staggering complexity of the cellular and subcellular mechanisms. Armed with even a limited knowledge of the inner workings at the cellular level, the idea that this life randomly designed itself almost defies credulity. This is a material fact of which [[Charles Darwin | Darwin]], a believer in God, was wholly unaware.

But the film does not point to the problems with Darwin's work to prove that Evolution is false. In fact, the film acknowledges that over time, species really do adapt or evolve as described by Darwin. The film pays tribute to the brilliance of Darwin, who rightly described adaptation, natural selection and some evolutionary processes.

The film's criticism is not so much with Darwin, but rather with the atheistic dogma that has become attached to Darwinism. The film points out that others have used Darwin's ideas as a panacea to neatly resolve the question of the origins of life and even the origin of species. Through brief examples, the film illustrates why the Theory of Evolution as an explanation for origins of the life requires a leap of faith in atheism that is at least as problematic as the leap required to believe the reverse.  This sets up the main thrust of the film.
