It’s a BLAST FROM THE PAST! Yes, this video was done in 2011 in response to Bill O’Reilly’s frankly hilarious response to a question about the tides “going in and going out.” Would it hurt him to actually look this stuff up instead of shouting down his guests?

So there's a 3-D movie which is about the biblical account of Genesis? Ok. However, the goal of the people behind this project is promote an event which conflicts with science and reality. Also, to make this even more embarrassing, they've gotten VenomFangX, the original creationist king of youtube, to promote this project which will probably be limited in theaters. So much for reaching out to the lost (that is, everyone who accepts science).

A Matter of Faith? More Like A Matter of DISHONESTY! (Trailer Review)

Just when you thought “God’s Not Dead” was it, along comes ANOTHER Christian propaganda film which is meant to make creationists the persecuted victims simply because creationism is illegal to teach in the science classroom. In this video, I take issue with some of the blatant strawman arguments and outright dishonesty within the trailer with criticism.
