Can you recommend a good documentary on Evolution?
« on: 28/04/2008 08:36:33 »
Daniel Klineburger asked the Naked Scientists:
I listen to science podcasts and enjoy yours. I don't have the greatest memory though, and was looking for some info. I heard there were to documentories coming out. One, "Expelled" was Christian propaganda, but I can't remember the one that shows the truths of evolution.

I was hoping you could point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

Daniel

    I'm not sure which one you mean, but:

    - http://richarddawkins.net/growingupintheuniverse
    - http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/evolution/
    - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flock_of_Dodos
    - http://richarddawkins.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=15585
    - http://richarddawkins.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=19713
    - http://www.amazon.com/Evolution-Boxed-Liam-Neeson-narrator/dp/B00005RG6J/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1209376785&sr=1-1
    - http://www.amazon.com/Walking-Cavemen-Caroline-Noh/dp/B00008AOWQ/ref=sr_1_25?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1209377363&sr=1-25

    There are a few others on Amazon but these are some of the ones that stood out to me in terms of content.

    For extensive information about Evolution: http://www.talkorigins.org/origins/faqs-evolution.html
    http://www.talkorigins.org/

    Try asking the forum at http://richarddawkins.net/forum/ if they know which film you you're looking for.

    I'm probably preaching to the choir, but Intelligent Design and Creationism are not science.

    Cheers.

    Got to be worth 10 minutes.

    Expelled is one of the new ones! It's about the 'creationist theory' as opposed to 'evolution'. Basicly it's a way for Americans to say religion is true. They pick out the simple facts about evolution, that as your watching you could think to yourself 'but that also works for evolution', it's just misleading, but still interesting and thought provoking... But don't try getting it off any of the torrents, as they are all fakes. Their is one mp4 version of it but who puts films/documentarys into .mp4 format anyway? But if you get that one and it works send me a message :D Gracias!
