Ben Stein presents this documentary about the plight of creation scientists in the eyes of their judgmental peers. Scientists who question the Darwin theory of evolution are ridiculed and 'expelled' from the scientific community, with no hope of future grants or employment. Darwinists must have something to hide, if they are not allowing any question to their precious theory!
The film, coming early next year, features interviews with notable intellectuals (inc. Richard Dawkins and Dan Dennett) to get their sides of the story. How did they rope Richard Dawkins into such a film, after his insistance that he would never do such an interview again? Well it turns out they were all approached to appear in a film named "Crossroads: The Intersection of Science and Religion", as PZ Myers
describes. One can only imagine the editing that will have taken place here...

BoneyDsays...Also check out the teaser trailer.
dgandhisays...I like how he got the Discovery institute guy to controdict the fact that they have a political agenda, stated plainly in their own "wedge document".
This is plainly propaganda, but I would have thought they would have given up by now and changed their name again.
He is even shown interviewing Behe, probably about how he has been discriminated against (he still holds a job as a professor) for refusing to engage in scientific discourse on the subject, and even explicitly ignores all the studies which have followed up on his "irreducible complexity" and found reductions that work under evolution by natural selection in every case.
I wonder if anybody but evangelical Christians who want to feel oppressed are going to watch this film?
anyprophetsays...All the evolution bloggers will watch it so they can tear it a new asshole. I can't wait.
