I wonder if Jurassic Park was banned in the Bible Belt. That mentioned evolution, too.

I can't find record of it, but it strikes me that it may been boycotted in parts of the US.

"However, others have criticised the move, saying that a refusal to screen films dealing with evolution may lead to filmmakers avoiding the topic completely."

Had to laugh at that. One suspects that's part of the idea. To keep people's mind from being corrupted by the idea of evolution.

I frankly would like to know what my country is coming to, we elect a monkey as our president and some people don't believe evolution is possible

I am doing well, Kris has to go away for work again for 4 months, which sucks but it's earning money for college.

Nya. Damn Imax. Lots of people have different beliefs and will be offended by different things, and they can't go about excluding any movies that have anything in them that might be offensive. If they start with excluding anything to do with evolution because of people believing in creationism, then they will probably start excluding various other things because there are people who don't believe in it. Like no references to any religion because there are people who don't believe in that particular religion. It might even go as far as say something like not letting movies show people eating meat because it might offend vegetarians. *sighs* All nonsense, I say... it's like in that South Park episode where they're doing a Christmas play at school, but they're not allowed to do anything to do with religion because it'll be offensive. They're not even allowed to have a little star at the top of the stage. The play ends up being the biggest piece of s*** ever and everyone realises they were stupid to b*tch about everything being offensive because everything can be offensive and then you're left with nothing you're allowed to do.

Ummm... sorry for my rant... *slinks away*

Good, good - as far money goes at least - and perhaps absence will make the heart grow fonder, to enter into the realm of the cliché...
