Thanks for team who made this movie, it is great to talk about God, I have an opinion about the 6 days, My opinion based on two points, The first point is how we calculate the day, the day is calculated by the rotation of a planet around itself a full cycle in front of the light source that illuminates it, such as the planet Earth rotate around itself a full cycle in front of the star sun, each cycle calculated a day, varies day from planet to planet, for example, one day on the planet Venus is equivalent to 243 days on planet Earth, we on planet Earth look at our planet we calculate time and days according to our planet Earth, The second point is the theories of scientists such as Albert Einstein proved that all the components of the whole universe in the movement of continuous rotary and all objects stars and galaxies revolving in orbits, I think the whole universe revolves around itself too, Through these two points, I believe that God counts the day through the rotation of the whole universe around itself in front of God the source of light for the universe "John 8:12". God used the word Day as a common word to describe the time as we know what is the day, but through God's perspective about the day Unfortunately I can't prove my opinion, hopefully you can

Well written and thought provoking story. Presents the case between science and Biblical truth in a way that is easy to understand. HIghly recommended. Kudos to the film makers for tackling this difficult subject matter. This is an important film that the Christian community should support. I look forward to it being at theaters across the country, and then available on DVD. This film is a real step up in Christian film making and is a quality production. Very impressed with the quality of actors in this film. Glad to see that Ernest Borgnine is still making movies! Great film for small group studies on how the Biblical account and science are harmonious in the origin of life. Want to see more quality Christian films being made. I hope this production company plans to make more films of this nature. I plan to purchase a copy when the DVD is released to use in small groups at my home. Excellent information.

Entering the theater, I expected the typical 'religious' film, but I was pleasantly surprised with The Genesis Code. Exposed to Young Earth Creationism in college, I expected a thread-bare story revolving around the usual anti-evolution diatribe. But it was not. Intricately woven together, three plots unfolded involving well-developed characters. The science-religion synthesis, which many anti-religious bigots may howl about, was thoughtfully also presented so as not to paint one side or the other as absurd and inferior. The intolerant persons alluded to above, will, no doubt, make much noise if their preferred doctrine isn't raised to the level of almighty law and fact. It is the squeaky wheel that gets the most attention. The movie took me back to my teenage years when I, too, had to struggle with this question. It was also refreshing to see in the movie, that even in regards to this controversial topic/plot, that all characters involved were cordial and civil toward one another. Sadly, this often isn't the case in the real world. It is nice to see it portrayed how it should be. I went twice to see this movie and am waiting to purchase the DVD when it becomes available.

If you get your science updates from the back of a cereal box, and your ability to discern truth from a Magic 8 Ball, then this movie is for you. Tokenism is running amok as the yarn is presented with the point of view of only the white Christian perspective and those from another cultural background are as flat and two dimensional as the plot and it's unfounded but humorous scientific 'melding". This film will appeal to those who want to believe that they are seeing beyond the Biblical errors, but a true deep thinker will only shake their head and ask for their money back from the theater. If C. Thomas Howell had changed a few lines and scenes, the film would have come across as a parody instead of simply a silly adventure to explain what does not exist. Creationism is not based on science, and well funded propaganda like this to justify the notations of 2000 year old nomads, to fit modern science theory and fact is a wasted effort.
