INTERESTED IN THE CREATION/EVEOLUTION DEBATE?
Ben Stein's upcoming movie EXPELLED reveals that thousands of scientists, teachers and students are being silienced and
expelled for questioning atheistic Darwinism and new scientific evidence of design in nature (as opposed to random, unguided
"mutation"). Ben Stein's EXPELLED can launch a major debate in the public square, and lead to legislation
that will allow students to learn about the "holes" in Darwin's theory, and alternative scientific theories
on the origin of life. "EXPELLED" will be in movie theaters nationwide beginning April 17th-20th.
Grace Christian School is currently accepting applications for the 2008-09 school year. Stamford Baptist Church has
a designated amount available for scholarships. If you are interested see Tom Starkey.
