Scientific American on Expelled

Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed--Scientific American's Take

You wouldn't expect Scientific American to take a particularly positive view of a movie that espouses intelligent design over evolutionary biology. Then again, you wouldn’t expect the producers of said film—in this case, Ben Stein’s Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed—to offer the editors of said magazine a private screening.

Associate producer Mark Mathis showed up at our offices with a preview of Expelled in hand. That's right, the unexpected screening happened. The unexpected positive reviews did not.

Its offcial, the makers of Expelled are stupid.

The reviews of the movie show the dishonesty of its producers. They talk about people who where persecuted fro there stance on I.D. but completely ignore the real facts about the events. As well they review that argument ad nazizm and argument ad stalinism, John Rennie even points out that Stalin didn't believe in evolution cause he viewed it as biological capitalism.

    just saw Expelled; the fact that Ben Stein isn’t trying to win any popularity contests helps to validate his message… his goal was to promote free thought, especially more thinking about motivations that drive American academia and a lot of other behind-the-scenes worldview that we tend to take for granted.

    Clearly you didn’t read or listen to anything I liked to in this post.
    Expelled lies, lies allot, it uses fallacious arguments trying to demonize not only evolution but atheism it doesn’t even discuss evolution or inelegant design and its argument is a pathetic stupid argument that people who promote pseudo science often use. Hell even in its commercial they use a fallacious and ignorant argument.

    Please read and listen to what I liked to and check out Expelled Exposed

    Not every 2 arguments are equal, Evolution has a mountain of evidence for it, ID on the other hand can’t even make predictions ( see my science page) and is part of the wedge strategy to get religion back into the schools
