I wasn't satisfied with the film. I felt like the religious struggle wasn't given it's due.

Wow! We've got a lucky number 13 members now. :) Welcome everyone!

Saw Creation at the Galaxy yesterday. REALLY good show. Bettany did a fantastic job. I also found out it's playing at the Carnival theatre all week for those of you in the Red Deer area who still want to see it. :) You won't be disappointed.

Hey thanks, sure there are tons of us around but getting us to sign up will always be a challenge.

Hey, would you look at that Lori...someone else from Red Deer (sorry Morgal, couldn't help but snoop), you're on a roll...kinda. I do consider myself "Red Deer area"... Anyway, welcome Morgal!

The theater called me back. There's a group in Red Deer called Reel Movie Mondays and they've booked the screen at Galaxy to air the movie. You have to buy the tickets at either the Library or the Museum, or bring $10 cash and buy one at a table they'll have set up just outside the theater.

In Red Deer, it's only being shown the one time (Feb 8th @ 7:00), so if you snooze you lose. :)

Hmmm... I just looked at the Cineplex site for the listings at Galaxy to find out when Creation is airing and it's not listed... I hope they haven't decided not to show it.

I have a call in to the theatre to let me know when, not if, they are airing it. And I've also emailed the people at the official site (www.creationthemovie.com) to ask for a list of their Alberta release dates.

I may be driving to Calgary soon afterall...

No prob, Rudy!

I have one suggestion, though... I'm not much of a partier, or pub-goer, but there's a movie coming up that might interest some of you.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/CREATION-The-Movie/39212784860?v=wall...

The movie "Creation" is airing in Red Deer on February 8th, according to one poster in a very un-noticeable location at the Galaxy movie theatre. My husband and I are lucky we went to Sherlocke today and he spotted it hiding by the candy machines... Too bad they couldn't have put it in a more noticable location considering it's airing in a week. And I suspect it's only airing for the one day. I'm also not sure of the time(s) yet...

But my hubby, Rick, and I will definately be going... Maybe we'll see some of you there?...

Those of you not from Red Deer, you'll have to look into when it's airing in your neck of the woods. It's a good thing we're in Canada. It's going to be a very limited release, unfortunately, but at least most cities will get it at some point. It' sounds like only a couple of the major cities in the states are even considering airing it. One guy on the Creation facebook page said that he's in New York and he's going to have to go to Ontario to see it...

Crazy! It's a true story, pulled directly from the family's letters and diaries, about Charles Darwin's life and how he came to realize how evolution works and the struggles he had with giving up religion...

OMG!!! They can air Passion of the Christ nation-wide, but it's a struggle to get this movie to be aired anywhere...!? Blows my mind. :(

Also I think there's 2 other problems...being that Atheism is not (despite what many theists say) a religion, many may not feel the "need" to get together. And as far as finding people, I don't think this site is that well known...yet. Alberta Atheists on Facebook has 31 members (I think) and remember on that site all your friends can see the groups you belong to so that would just be "outed" Atheists mostly.

Although this wouldn't help you Glen, I have noticed most of the people here are either from Calgary or Edmonton, so maybe we should have a party at Lori's place in Red Deer....sorry, just teasing you Lori (^_-)
