Have you seen: Ben Stein's move documentary --- EXPELLED: No Intelligence Allowed? I never even heard of it until I came across this Christian review: quote:
It is outstanding, and the theater was crowded. The audience applauded loudly and boisterously at the end of the film. Ben Stein's brilliant documentary is a truly must-see for everyone who is interested in science and truth. It is NOT an "evangelical" film, but one that objectively explores the vicious and cold censorship that is vigorously and uniformly enforced on campuses and research institutions across America. It also tells the stories of numerous academic heroes who have been "expelled" for daring to question the rigid Darwinist interpretation of life. Few films in recent years have ignited more controversy and opposition than this one little, simple documentary, which is a testimony to the power of clear-eyed and honest logic and dogged, open-minded pursuit of truth. The implications of the film are literally staggering; and when one realizes how our "trusted" academic and social and media institutions are distorting and silencing the truth - how a wall has been erected against honest dialogue - it will motivate viewers into action. Ben Stein is a perfect interviewer - knowledgeable, but not pushy - genuinely interested, and deeply insightful. His journey takes him across the USA and Europe ... right into the concentration camps of Nazi Germany, where the clear link between Darwinian ideology and Nazism is soberly, but shockingly made (shocking, that is, to anyone who has not previously been familiar with the connections between Darwin's theories, eugenics, and Hitler). The film is funny, fresh, and out-of-the box; it is also, at times, unexpectedly poignant. Stein can be wry, but the film builds to a rousing and inspiring finale. I implore everyone who reads this to see this film immediately. We had to drive more than 45 minutes one way to get to the theater, but it was more than worth the trip. Every student, every teacher, every leader needs to see the film and tell everyone else to see it as well. Check out More HERE AND while you're there, don't miss travisbrown's Post --- It's way too good to miss: quote:
'Science vs. God' Do you Believe? 'Let me explain the problem science has with Jesus Christ.' The atheist professor of philosophy pauses before his class and then asks one of his new students to stand. 'You're a Christian, aren't you, son?' 'Yes sir,' the student says. 'So you believe in God?' 'Absolutely.' 'Is God good?' 'Sure! God's good.' 'Is God all-powerful? Can God do anything?' 'Yes.' 'Are you good or evil?' .......

I read as recently as today in Focus on the Family's Citizen magazine that Expelled is going to be released to DVD in September.
