ADF letter prompts Ala. space center to allow film offering alternative view to evolution

‘The Mysterious Islands’ set for public screening one day after 150th anniversary of Darwin’s ‘Origin of Species’

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — Alliance Defense Fund attorneys have received a favorable response to a letter sent on behalf of a Christian ministry Monday to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center that urged the Alabama facility to reconsider its decision to prohibit the showing of a new creation adventure documentary.  USSRC initially agreed to allow Vision Forum to rent the facility’s on-site theater but then changed its mind, saying the movie was “inappropriate” for the venue because of its content challenging the theory of evolution.  After receiving the ADF letter, USSRC quickly agreed to welcome the screening.
