The Case for a Creator
When objectively considered, does contemporary scientific evidence point toward or away from a supernatural Creator? Strobel interviewed scientists and scholars from a wide range of disciplines for the answers. Based upon a New York Times best-seller, The Case For A Creator is a remarkable film about Lee Strobel's journey from spiritual skepticism to a profound faith in the God who has etched His indelible signature upon every galaxy and living cell. The Creator now revealed by 21st century science.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Waste of time
Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
Boring
The premise of this production is "life came about because of the conditions in the universe. These conditions are all a billion to one shot. Therefore, goddidit." One wonders if it ever occurred to the producers that life occurred in this universe because life had only the conditions here to work with. If there were different conditions, then life would have been different, and the creationists in that universe would be marveling at how the conditions were so precise as to allow life.I am reminded of a quote by Douglas Adams: "...imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in, an interesting hole I find myself in. Fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!'"
I just finished watching The Case for a Creator. In the interest of full disclosure, I'll tell you that I am an atheist and am therefore biased myself. I expect that some reading that statement will probably skip over the rest of this, however, I always enjoy a challenge to my beliefs (or lack thereof) so I attempted to view this documentary with an open mind and see what sorts of assertions it made.As each claim was made, I paused the movie to do some very simple research to broaden my understanding. Without exception, I discovered each claim to be false. Not utterly false for the most part; just false enough to skip on to the next claim. The most astounding was a claim that was involved in a court case prior to the making of this film: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitzmiller_v._Dover_Area_School_DistrictI generally expect documentaries to be well researched, and this one falls well short of the mark. Whether intentionally or not, it is misleading. Regardless of any beliefs or preconceived ideas you may have, please do yourself a favor if you watch this documentary - question it. Preferably from a variety of sources. Faith shouldn't mean believing in something that is demonstrably false, or believing because you're told to.
What could have potentially been a great work, instead I found it dis-enfranchising? How so? No closed captioning or sub-titles.For us deaf/hard-of-hearing folks, this is a MUST so that we too can participate. Instead, we are cutoff.God apparently makes perfect human beings, that have 2 ears that can hear.For those of us who can't: tough beans.I watched about 5 minutes of it. I could read the lips okay, but the underlying narration, was non understandable.What a shame that such a powerful tool, instead has the power to dis-enfranchise.Wayno
Lee Strobel presents a series of interviews with scientists and other scholars who convincingly demonstrate why the foundations of the theory of evolution would crumble, if only its adherents would confront the evidence honestly....including a remarkable comment made by Darwin himself as to what it would take to render his theory invalid.As with the excellent "Fireproof," here we have another strong message in favor of the Christian faith that has been met with several immediate blind and ignorant "1" votes. The message boards for "Fireproof" make this clear, as do the polemic voting with a nearly equal number of "1" and "10" votes in each case.There are evolutionists, atheists, and others who apparently don't have the courage of their convictions and will not confront the fallacy of their misguided beliefs. Theirs is a blind faith that does not stand up to investigation on its own terms. See the DVD or read the book.
