Friday Night Flicks presents "One Million Years B.C."
(Friday, Feb. 20, 7:00 in CUE 203)
We will cap off Darwin Week with this classic 1966 adventure/fantasy film, starring Raquel Welch as a cavewoman who battles dinosaurs, giant spiders, and volcanic eruptions to save her clan. This movie promises to take you "back through time and space to the edge of man's beginnings... Discover a savage world whose only law was lust!" With movies like this, who needs evolution? AND, fabulous door prizes to be given away!
One Million Years B.C. will be introduced by English Professor Michael Delahoyde, who will recite from memory the entire script of the film in two minutes and will explain what Darwinism has to do with cave-people battling dinosaurs.

As a young man, Charles Darwin sailed around the world aboard the HMS Beagle. The things he saw on that epic voyage made him realize that life changed over time, that living species today have descended from common ancestors in the past, and that something he called "natural selection" was the main driving force behind this change. Today Darwin's key insights permeate all of science and form the basis of modern biology.
Even today, exhibits all across the world are dedicated to honoring Darwin and teaching his ideas.
