Expunged Dept.

| | Comments (1)

Ebert goes to town on Ben Stein for the risible Expelled.

I used to like Ben Stein. After Expelled — for my money the worst "documentary" since those wretched "Prophecies of Nostradamus" scare reels in the 1970s — my respect for him reached subzero. Read the article and find out why, and check out this other exposé on the flick as well, which has some really wonderful rebuttals of the movie's claims under the title "Set Ben Straight."

That. Was. AWESOME. Thanks for the link to the Set Ben Straight. I especially like the argument where Ben's movie and the whining about how ID is being suppressed in scientific research study is compared to the phrase "my teachers hate me!" when a kid gets a bad grade. It isn't that you're being expelled, its that you flunked out.

I also like the rebuttals that bring up how open Christians can still deny the ID claim and argue against it--which I am, and do, with my Darwin fish on the back of my truck :D I'm gonna get a Jesus fish at some point and put it on the other side. THAT will confuse people to hell, much to my sadistic delight! *cackles*
