This film only proves a Creator or Designer, not necessarily a God


Keep in mind that if this film is right, it only proves that the universe has a Creator, a Designer or Grand Architect. It would not prove Christianity to be true, or that the Christian God exists. That is another issue altogether. For example, if I build a house, that means that I am the builder of the house, not that I am God. Or if I design a video game, then I am a designer, it doesn't mean I am God. See what I mean? The existence of a creator or designer or builder doesn't necessarily prove that there is a God in the classic sense of the word.

Also, the fact that something was created, built or designed, intelligently, doesn't mean that there has to be only one creator, designers or builder. As we all know, it takes a team of workers to build a house. And it takes a team of game designers to design a video game. So just because there's a creator doesn't automatically mean there has to be only one, as Christian theology assumes.

You gotta keep all this in mind and look at the big picture.

Btw, this film is available now for DVD purchase or online streaming at their website: http://www.theprinciplemovie.com

Those of you bashing this film should at least see it first. Otherwise, your review is dishonest and unqualified.

I've just watched it and thought that it was great. I'm not sure that it even proves a "designer" or "creator" but it does show some compelling scientific evidence for the Milky Way being somewhat at the centre of the Universe. This doesn't really prove that we are special in any way but it does suggest that we are old. Or at least that our place in the Universe is very old. This makes complete sense really. It takes a long time for life to evolve and being at the oldest place in the Universe fits this idea. Even just looking at Levinthal's Paradox it requires that we occupy an old place in the Universe. It's not a perfected theory but to me it makes more sense than inventing new elements and energies that we can't find in order to make the data fit our assumptions about the Universe.
