    Default eXpelled!

    I can't wait to take my kids to see this next month!



    Interesting Ben Stein movie coming out this spring 2008.

    Ben Stein makes public the ostracism of well known and respected scientists from
    the scientific community due to their daring to suggest that intelligent design should
    be considered as a possible reason for man's existence.

    It looks like the movie should be interesting.

    I'm surprised nobody else here thinks this would be a great film!

    Ah so somebody DID beat me to it. I'd have commented before, but I don't come to the movies section often. My friends and I are all going to see it on Saturday.

    Name one thing the government does better than the private sector and I'll show you something that requires the use of force to accomplish.

    Intelligent design has been unequivocally exoised as pseudoscience. It's nothing more than a (false) philosophical argument (the clockmaker) pushed to the forefront (again: it was done before under the name "Creationism") by a fringe group of religious folks bent on reading Genesis literally.
    But I guess the comedian Ben Stein will finally put the "debate" (there isn't one) to rest with his movie.
    I just really feel for the "scientists" that have been so brutally silenced by those bad ol' Darwinist pagans.

    I think the intention is to open the debate, since most liberals are completely closed about it and are unwilling to debate it. Kind of like what your post demonstrates.

    The problem with your post is that the debate has already taken place. ID has been exposed as pseudoscience unequivocally. The problem is that they do still need to sell tickets to that ID "museum" they built out in corn land so I guess a few people are still grasping at these straws. I don't know why. It seems like a waste of time to beat a dead horse. That's just me though.

    I just saw it advertised this last week and am planning on taking my kids the next rainy Saturday or Sunday.
