Icons of Evolution: The Growing Scientific Controversy Over Darwin (DVD)
by Brian BoorujyProduct Overview
Are students learning the whole truth about Darwin's theory of
evolution?
According to a growing number of scientists, the surprising answer is
no. They claim that many of the most famous "Icons of
Evolution"-including Darwin's "Tree of Life," finches from the Galapagos
Islands, and embryos that look remarkably similar-are based on outdated
research and sloppy logic. They say students are being hurt by the
failure to present both sides of an emerging scientific debate over
Darwin's theory.
Come explore this fascinating new conflict over evolution in the
classroom-a conflict based on science, not religion. Learn about the
controversy that engulfs one town when a teacher actually tries to tell
students that some scientists disagree with Darwin.
From the Galapagos Islands to China, Icons of Evolution will take you on
a fast-paced, fascinating journey into one of the most controversial
issues in today's public arena.

Loving Truth Books & Gifts Review
Similar to the book (Icons of Evolution: Science or Myth? Why Much of
What We Teach About Evolution is Wrong), but shorter and less detailed, with
beautiful computer generated animations, interviews with scientists, and
more. The Haeckel's embryos discussion in itself is worth watching this
video!
The video encourages investigation, thought, and scientific analysis of the
theory of Darwinian (blind) evolution, and looks at few popular icons of
evolution that are taught in public schools without any critical
examination: Haeckel's Embryos, Darwin's Finches, 4-Winged Fruit Fly, and
Bacterial Resistance to drugs. It also discusses the issue of homology and
the Cambrian Explosion that is a puzzle for Darwinian Evolution. The video
also deals with the issue of suppressing free inquiry in the scientific
establishment and the intense intolerance towards professors who might even
mention challenging the dogma of Darwinian Evolution. It is a shame, as in
science we ought to follow the truth and the facts, no matter our own
assumptions.
Besides the book with the same title, you may like to consider the following
