[PAR] [TLE] Richard L. Thompson [SEP] Richard Leslie Thompson, also known as Sadaputa Dasa (February 4, 1947 – September 18, 2008), was an American mathematician, author and Gaudiya Vaishnava religious figure, known principally for his promotion of Vedic creationism and as the co-author (with Michael Cremo) of "Forbidden Archeology: The Hidden History of the Human Race" (1993), which has been widely criticised by the scientific community.  Thompson also published several books and articles on religion and science, Hindu cosmology and astronomy.  He was a member of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (popularly known as the "Hare Krishna movement" or "ISKCON") and a founding member of the Bhaktivedanta Institute, the branch of ISKCON dedicated to examining the relationship of modern scientific theories to the Vaishnava worldview.  In the 'science and religion' community he was known for his articulation of ISKCON's view of science.  Danish historian of religion Mikael Rothstein described Thompson as "the single dominating writer on science" in ISKCON whom ISKCON has chosen to "cover the field of science more or less on his own".  C. Mackenzie Brown, professor of religion at Trinity University, San Antonio, Texas, described him as "the leading figure" in ISKCON's critique of modern science. [PAR] [TLE] The Mysterious Origins of Man [SEP] The Mysterious Origins of Man is a television special that originally aired on NBC on February 25, 1996.  Hosted by Charlton Heston, the program argued that mankind has lived on the Earth for tens of millions of years, and that mainstream scientists have suppressed the fossil evidence for this.  Some material included was based on the controversial "Forbidden Archeology", a book written by Hindu creationists Michael Cremo and Richard L. Thompson about anomalous archeological finds reported mainly in early scientific journals.  It also included interviews with the following people: creationist Carl Baugh on the Paluxy tracks; Richard Milton, author of "Shattering the Myths of Darwinism", on Lucy; Neil Steede on Incan ruins; and Graham Hancock, author of "Fingerprints of the Gods", on Atlantis.  It was produced by B. C. Video Inc.
