I was unimpressed at the hype this movie was trying to generate. But when one of the scientists interviewed for this movie was banned form seeing it at a public showing, it became clear which side was part of a cover-up.

Michael Moore's movies played in nearly every theater I knew of, whereas in a city as big as Phoenix, AZ I could only find one theater that played this movie. It's no surprise that it did not make a dent.

I would have used it if I were replying to you specifically rather than the horde of Christian bashers who dugg me down.

Just for the sake of posterity (i.e. late comment thread readers) it's not just that humans come from apes, but that we _are_ apes, taxonomically and genetically. We just happen to be apes who _tend_ to be smarter than all the other apes.

It thrills me to see that most Americans are too smart to waste their money on this Supernatural Design propaganda.

I agree with you 100 percent. Science isn't about belief. The difference between you and I is that I was told to believe evolution, which can be a very good scientific explanation but also has many flaws. I think there are things that cannot always be tested by science. You can't test, observe, and record any evidence on faith you can only believe. People should be allowed to believe whatever they want but trying to back beliefs up with made up evidence and facts is ridiculous.

Only marginally smarter. At least we have one data point (ourselves) to suggest that intelligent live can evolve in the universe, so presumably it could have happened elsewhere, and maybe they developed the technology to reach earth millions of years ago.But there is still no evidence to suggest that ET was involved, and nothing to suggest anything other than natural evolutionary processes. So the ball is in your court to find evidence ET was here, and that they had somehow directed our evolution. (A.k.a 2001: A Space Odyssey)
