UNLOCKING THE MYSTERY OF LIFE - (2001-NR)
THEME- DOCUMENTARY, WHERE DOES LIFE COME FROM?
STORY-Where did we all come from. Did life originate from a single simple cell with 'Natural Selection' as proposed by Charles Darwin in THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES? With our knowledge today of DNA and amino acids and protein, would Darwin write that book today? We'll never know, of course, but based on his own words regarding the foundation of his system based on the simple cell concept, it would seem not. The film features world class scientists and state of the art computer graphics to present the case for an Intelligent Designer rather than random chance. Showing that life cannot be reduced to a simple cell based on DNA evidence, it proposes that information (DNA) requires Intelligence. It does not make the case for Who or What might be the Intelligence, just that the overwhelming scientific evidence today points to an Intelligent Design. It is not preachy, it does not mention the word God and concentrates on the science behind ID. While I have not heard a convincing argument AGAINST ID, perhaps someone reading this review has one. Are scientists today being honest if they reject ID? Isn't science the pursuit of truth wherever that may lead without any presuppositions? Is the path of Natural Selection a cold trail and we should be pursuing the lead of Intelligent Design, wherever that may end up? While science has not 'scientifically proven' the case for an Intelligent Being as the source of life, the evidence is mounting and the question is what will science do with it. Very educational for all levels and worth watching no matter what perspective you follow. Lu G. for Lu's Reviews. 9/25/2007.
