Darwin Fever Making Us Sick?

Christianity Today December 2, 2009

The Mysterious Islands, a new documentary shot on the Galapagos Islands, was recently released in conjunction with the 150th anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species.

But the new film isn’t a celebration of the anniversary, but instead a debunking of Darwin’s theories of naturalism and evolution. A film crew, including Dr. John Morris, president of the Institute for Creation Research, visited the Galapagos earlier this year to make the movie.

“The world has Darwin fever, and we think it’s making our culture sick,” says executive producer Doug Phillips. “Because of the implications of his famous theory of evolution, Darwin was perhaps the most influential man for evil in the last 200 hundred ideas. His ideas have contributed to the rise of Nazism, the proliferation of racism, Marxism, the horrors of eugenics, and abortionism.”

The Darwin-Nazism connection was also explored in Expelleda couple years ago.
