If you want to know what the scientists know about evolution, then here it is. An enormous breadth of information, assimilated, compressed, and congealed into an easily understood, visually irresistible presentation. "Facts Of Evolution" has layer upon layer of evidence that makes common descent and macroevolution inescapable.
Professor Robert Beckford looks at how immigration, radical social action, conservative morality and charismatic worship are all transforming the face of the faith, and asks what that might mean for the future in an increasingly secular society. Some academics are warning that popular churches who take a firm line on issues like gay marriage, abortion and euthanasia are pushing Christianity farther away from the attitudes of mainstream society. Others believe that the fervour of charismatic faith is attracting large numbers, but ignoring a quiet exodus out of the back door. Robert Beckford speaks to church leaders in the UK, including the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, about how they see the future. This revealing film gets to the heart of what’s changing within Christianity in the UK. It will show how the faithful are kicking back against the steady decline in church attendance, and provide evidence of a more committed, but potentially divided, future.
"This DVD is a must for every Christian. On this DVD, one of Dave Hunt’s excellent presentations is combined with many inserts inter alia footage shot at the Parliament of the World’s Religions which took place during 1 to 8 December 1999 in Cape Town, South Africa. "Dave Hunt clearly explains the difference between naturalism and supernaturalism. You see and hear many of the phenomena about which he speaks such as the occult practices which are so rampant in the Christian Church today. Besides this there are inserts of the prayers by ancestral worshippers, the presentation of the Earth Charter to former President Nelson Mandela, as well as those who worship Mother Earth and many more."
