I recently saw the film "Expelled - No Intelligence Allowed" (on opening day even). It's a "documentary" (more like a propaganda piece) by Ben Stein (look to the main vid window for a preview). Well, it's a pro-intelligent design film. Although Ben tries to make it out that it's objective. It, and he, are not! Ben DOES offer time to the opposition, sure. But said offerings are clearly edited to make the subject's antagonists look silly and/or petulent. Anyone with any intelligence will also readily note the numerous logical fallacies Stein and his I.D. believing crew of "scientists" profer, as well. For instance, it offers that Darwinism effectively was the impetus for Fascism. After all, Hitler believed in Evolution. Of course Hitler was also married...so if the "logic" follows heterosexuals are Nazis (or at least more apt to be). Please DO see the film though! It was a larf! ;) And it illustrates COMPLETELY the lenghts religionists and right-wingers will go to with their twisting of the facts and logic. As well as how stupid most religionists are. I'm working on a more detailed examination of the logical fallacies of the film (and of logical fallacies in general) but I'll leave people time to see the film. --- Thunderbird 2.0.0.12 (Windows/20080213)* Origin: The Eastern Star - Fidonet Via Your Newsreader (1:123/789.0) SEEN-BY: 10/1 3 14/250 300 34/999 106/1 120/228 123/500 134/10 140/1 222/2 SEEN-BY: 226/0 249/303 261/20 38 100 1381 1404 1406 1417 1418 266/1413 SEEN-BY: 280/1027 320/119 396/45 633/260 267 690/734 712/848 800/432 801/161 SEEN-BY: 801/189 2222/700 2320/100 105 2905/0 @PATH: 123/789 500 261/38 633/260 267 |
