Did you mean to say "scientific evidence for Darwinian evolution"? I think you are slipping, Ray.

Dawkins has said stupid things in the past, and will continue to say stupid things. He is not the "Pope" of the atheist movement by any means. He is fallable. Like any person out there, he will say things that I agree with and things that I disagree with.

The problem here is the question that Ray asks in the movie: give your single best piece of evidence supporting the theory of evolution. He then rejects out of hand anything that he is told. All those things that Steven J. talks about, like nested hierarchies and pseudogenes and the like - in and of themselves do not prove evolution. Added all together, however, and it becomes clear that evolution is a fact - even the so-called "Darwinian Evolution" that causes a change in "kind".
So, when Ray says that there is no evidence of evolution on the cutting room floor, he is probably being at least partly correct (by his twisted logic). There is no "magic bullet" from the experts that prove evolution. I suspect, however, that they do provide evidence that taken in whole makes it clear that the theory of evolution is the most reasonable explanation for the diversity of life on earth.
Instead of showing that, Ray (or his "editors") manipulate the film to hold the interviewees up to ridicule. It is not the case that the experts have no answers for Ray; but rather no answers that he likes.

You can tell your daughter that there are many people who both accept the truth of evolution AND trust in Jesus. The two statements are not mutually exclusive.

I was just curious - any chance that you would post up links to the complete interviews with the atheist professors in the film? I'm sure that the complete interviews would just further prove that they are totally clueless about the evidence of evolution.
I look forward to seeing PZ Myers et al floundering about to your hard hitting questions.

The belief that Hitler will get the same eternal punishment as the vast majority of his victims is sickening.
