Lisa Fary's earliest influences are Princess Leia, Rainbow Bright, Astronaut Barbie, and her 6th grade teacher, Ms. Palmer. She's angry that it's 2011 and she still doesn't have a hovercraft, but will accept a jetpack as consolation. That jetpack had better be pink with a rhinestone monogram. 19 Comments

I shared this article on FriendFeed (http://friendfeed.com/worldofhiglet/15d10dbd/evol… and it's garnered quite a lot of interest, with people mostly agreeing – it seems to be an attempt to generate interest. Which is a bit sad – is the film so bad it needs to resort to this?

Good points. Considering that a movie about evolution is entitled "Creation," the moviemakers were obviously aiming for exactly this sort of controversy. Evidently they're disappointed by the lack of response, having had it on good authority that all Red State religious people react violently when poked. Good post.
It's not necessarily the beliefs I have a problem with – it's the pushing of those beliefs on everyone in sight by way of political activity that pisses me off.
Poopy.
So what if the majority of America is made up of Christians? Religions in general are biased about their own views because they REALLY believe that their creation stories are true, but they are never open minded or even tolerant of other religions or even science as an answer. There should just be a disclaimer before they go to the movie, or even better…if they know what it's about and they don't accept it – DON'T GO. There are simple solutions to everything but people are just so easy to jump to ridicule someone else for something that they don't accept. Bring the movie to America and let people choose for themselves whether or not they want to see it. If they're offended in any way then it's their own fault for watching it.
