I bought the movie "Creation" from Amazon for $7.99. Renting it would have been cheaper but I wanted to own it. My apple desktop computer has a huge screen for watching movies.
"A fascinating look at the life of Charles Darwin and his struggle to uphold his scientific theory amidst a society seated in religion."
"Charles Darwin's 'The Origin of Species', first published in 1859, has been called the biggest single idea in the history of thought."
"This is the story of how it came to be written."
For people who want to buy or rent this thing:

Amazon makes everything easy. I love Amazon.
Two quotes from the movie:
"You killed God sir. You have killed God."
"I am finally decided. I think I owe it to my children to at least have the courage of my own convictions. My title will be On Origin of Species. And I shall endeavor to keep God out of it, although he will see it as a personal attack."
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
