Everything from education and government to marriage and vocation came under the influence of the Reformation. Here was a world in tumultuous flux: widespread cultural and religious tensions, heated theological controversies, bloody conflicts across the map-all marked a continent in turmoil. Beginning with Luther’s nailing of his 95 Theses to the church door at Wittenberg in 1517 to the Peace of Westphalia, a treaty that capped the Thirty Years’ War in 1648, the Reformation launched by Luther produced enormous changes in Europe-changes that eventually swept across the Atlantic, influencing our nation as well.

Origin : Design Chance And The First Life On Earth (DVD)
$28.89Add to cartThis long awaited sequel to Illustra’s landmark documentary Unlocking the Mystery of Life challenges the paradigm of scientific materialism and the belief that life is nothing more than the product of blind, undirected processes.
With spectacular computer animation and cutting-edge research, ORIGIN examines a question that has baffled science for centuries: How did life on Earth begin? Today, most researchers insist it arose through simple chemistry that-without direction or plan-somehow transformed inanimate matter into the first living cell. Yet, this explanation is devoid of evidence and unsatisfying, even to its most ardent supporters.
As ORIGIN exposes the flaws of materialistic theories, you’ll travel through a molecular universe to encounter extraordinary biological engineering crucial to the survival of every organism that has ever existed. Engineering that points unmistakably to intelligence and mind.
ORIGIN is a film that transcends science to touch the heart and mind of anyone who has ever pondered the deepest mystery of the human experience: Where did we come from and why are we here?
ORIGIN will be available on DVD and Blu-ray with English subtitles, Stereo and 5.1 Surround audio.
