Expelled: The Complexity of the Cell

Expelled documents the plight of scientists and scholars who dare to question the claims of Darwinian evolution.

As a result, in June, Louisiana successfully passed the Louisiana Science Education Act to protect scientists, teachers and students who voice their skepticism of Darwinism. Please encourage your friends and family to see this important film, and to sign the academic freedom petition like you did.

The Incorrigible Dr. Berlinski

The producers of the critically acclaimed documentary, Icons of Evolution, sat down for an interview with Dr. Berlinski. The interview was a lucid and entertaining critique of Darwinian evolution.

She called him ‘incorrigible.’
