Ben Stein, although undergoing criticism and not so subtle ridicule, plans to release a documentary this spring entitled "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed". I do hope that all Americans will see this documentary. Not only to support Stein for putting it before the public but to see the exposure of the abuse and obstruction of freedom of speech being put forth by those who teach naturalism for the existence of the universe, origin of life and the evolution of it all. These conniving atheistic scientists who have gained positions of authority within their community have lost all scruples when it comes to defending their scam. If any of their own puts forth even a hint of doubt concerning the absurdity of their stances, he finds himself blackballed. One must either follow the prescribed doctrines or he is in danger of loss of his job, destruction of his reputation, etc.

Stein has documented interviews with a number of scientists to show the underhanded techniques taken by those opposed to Intelligent Design. And there is little wonder that his showing of the document is being attacked heavily. It's opponents are quick to state that there should be freedom of speech but that spreading foolish nonsense around should not be tolerated. You see, they have no leg to stand on anymore. Their theories have been demolished and even privately admitted so by many scientists even though they are afraid to go public for fear of losing their abundance of grants. So presenting the mere mention of some proof of wrong, sends them into a hysteric frenzy. The document is supposed to be shown in April so you can expect the heavy ammunition to get louder and louder for the next six weeks or so. Everyone needs to see this documentary.

I have written a previous article about the infighting in the scientific community and of their fraudulent methods. Even the nation of China has clamped down on their scientists for fraudulent activities. The U.S. and European nations should do the same.

Some hard shelled atheistic scientists were interviewed and apparently made remarks that they now wish they had not. It will be interesting to see what all has been said and just what punishment will be dished out for it. That is the dilemma they are facing now. Will they be able to take drastic action against those who have let a kitten or two out of the bag? Especially when that is what the documentary is about…that of underhanded disciplinary action against those of their own who "mess up".

He even interviewed Richard Dawkins, the British evolutionary biologist who is perhaps the worlds most renowned atheist. He loathes the idea of God, and has reportedly admitted that life may have been started by a designer but if so, by some more evolved being from another planet, not God. His zeal for the imaginary evolutionary process is no doubt from his abhorrence for deity.

Atheistic evolutionists are renowned for saying that those of us who accept the evidence for an almighty God do so in blind faith without the evidence. Which is absolutely untrue. There is massive evidence for the existence of God, but rather, they are the ones whose ideas are based on nothing but stubborn blind faith. I would like to give you a couple of quotes for consideration of whose faith is baseless.

"Palaeobiologists flocked to these scientific visions of a world in a constant state of flux and admixture. But instead of finding the slow, smooth and progressive changes Lyell and Darwin had expected, they saw in the fossil records rapid bursts of change, new species appearing seemingly out of nowhere and then remaining unchanged for millions of years-patterns hauntingly reminiscent of creation." (Pagel M. [Research fellow, Department of Zoology and Hertford College, Oxford University], "Happy accidents?" Review of "The Pattern of Evolution" by Niles Eldredge, W.H. Freeman 1999. Nature, Vol 397, 25 February 1999, p.665)

"...the second law of thermodynamics states that for irreversible processes in any closed system left to itself, the entropy (loss of available heat energy) will increase with time; thus the universe, viewed as such a system, is moving to the condition of maximum entropy (heat death): but (and this is the significant aspect of the matter for our purposes) if the irreversible process had begun an infinite time ago-if, in other words, the universe were untreated and eternal-the earth would already have reached maximum entropy; and since this is not the case, we are driven to the conclusion that the universe is indeed contingent and finite, and requires a creative force from the outside to have brought it into existence." (Montgomery, John Warwick * [Dean and Professor of Law, Simon Greenleaf School of Law, California], ed., "Christianity for the Tough Minded: Essays in Support of an Intellectually Defensible Religious Commitment," [1973], Bethany House: Minneapolis MN, 1982, reprint, p26)

"This notion of species as `natural kinds' fits splendidly with creationist tenets of a pre-Darwinian age. Louis Agassiz even argued that species are God's individual thoughts, made incarnate so that we might perceive both His majesty and His message. Species, Agassiz wrote, are "instituted by the Divine Intelligence as the categories of his mode of thinking." But how could a division of the organic world into discrete entities be justified by an evolutionary theory that proclaimed ceaseless change as the fundamental fact of nature? Both Darwin and Lamarck struggled with this question and did not resolve it to their satisfaction. Both denied to the species any status as a natural kind." (Gould, Stephen J. [Professor of Zoology and Geology, Harvard University], "A Quahog is a Quahog," in "The Panda's Thumb: More Reflections in Natural History," [1980], Penguin: London, 1990, reprint, pp.170-171)

I also list below several URL's which list many of the hundreds of such quotes that are available on the internet. I only hope that this new documentary will have the proper effect to snap many out of the delusion that all scientists are brilliant and honest. Science is a magnificent blessing to the world. Deceitful and unethical men who propose simple ideas as scientific theories or fact, are not.
 
Addendum: The documentary opened today (4-18-2008) at movie theaters nationwide. My wife and I went to the 11:40 A. M. matinee. It is well worth your time. Don't miss it and encourage all the young folks to attend.

Thanks again Sue for brightening my day. It is my hope that people will flock to the viewing of this documentary. Maybe, just maybe it will open some eyes to the shenanigans these masters of deceit are putting forth. We need the freedom back to explain to our students that there are two conflicting views as to origins and life on this planet. Then explain truthfully the knowns and unknowns of each and let the students decide. To teach the naturalists idea of the universe as fact is outrageous. We teach our students the absolute laws of physics and then teach them nonsense that breaks those laws.

The existence of the viruses and bacteria prove the evolution of life on Earth from simple DNA beings to complex multicellular beings like us (the creationists forget about the hundreds of parasite species, many of them still living on human beings too, unfortunately, so that there is only a surviving matter, and good and bad for us, and not for the chicken that we eat ...)

Mihai, I'm sorry to say that your "proof" is pathetically inadequate. There is no simple DNA and there is no way it could have developed accidentally. And creationists don't forget any phase of this supposition. Let us see an evolutionist create anything, living or inanimate, from nothing as they insist.

The DNA had its own evolution from simplest molecules of Carbon and Hydrogen, Oxygen to more complex molecules seen into today's DNA of living forms (also the more complex atoms/substances were made over the Universe's evolution). However I would like to be true that the evolution to human beings have been "influenced" / improved over time by God (an intelligence too big/hard for us to understand). I pray for this too, but the way this World exists now, requires immediately actions from us so that people will never fight against each other but only against their lack of useful knowledge.

Mihai, you have every right to believe what you like. But read your first very long sentence in your comment second above. You make these definite statements without a shred of evidence to back them up, more especially prove them. Then you mention a God with intelligence too big/hard for us to understand. That isn't exactly true. I know and understand His intelligence...He knows every miniscule thing there is to know. He even knows how to create all of these things you refer to with out the billions of years to allow them to reach where they are. Microevolution exists, macroevolution does not and hundreds of the evolutionists admit they cannot prove any of it. They accuse creationists of believing on blind faith. The exact thing they do. Only we have evidence of our stand, they do not. Thanks for your comments.

There are many errors and unsupported assertions in this article

To take just few of the errors from the quote regarding the second law of thermodynamics alone:
1 - current scientific understanding does not claim the universe is infinitely old, the current best estimate of its age is around 15.7 billion years.
2 - If there was an external creator able to influence the universe then the universe would not be a closed system and therefore the second law of thermodynamics would not be applicable anyway.

Thanks for reading my article altru. It makes little difference what current scientific misunderstanding does or does not claim. The second law of thermodynamics statement was contained in another fellow's quote, but it was absolutely true and you know it. He did not make a definite statement that the universe was said to be infinitely old but only the fallacy , IF one said so. But if the universe is as you say 15.7 billion years old, the the first law of thermodynamics blocks your supposition. You fail to explain where the miniscule "singularity" originated.

Then you say that if external creator were able to control the universe, it would not be a closed system. Who ever said that He controls it? He created it to operate on it's own. You have no answers as to the beginning or those other things which you classify rightly as hypotheses. But a Creator answers them all. Sorry.

I found the Stein mocumentary to be utterly devoid of any real use except to preach to the uneducated creationist choir. A case in point: his speech at Pepperdine. As has been documented - there were only two or three actual students in the room, all the rest were extras brought in to fill up the lecture hall. (See the Michael Shermer review from Scientific American.) If the film and its claims were valid, why take this approach? …because people were afraid to attend for fear of offending a professor? I seriously doubt it.

So, what is your point? Naturally those of you who swallow every word that a physicist says will degrade the documentary. It is only a documentary revealing what the evolutionists have admitted themselves in interviews. If you trust them so, why then are you upset? The entire punch of this documentary is to show the unfairness of these who have positions of control, how they handle those who dissent. It needs to be shown.

There is an overwhelmingly large amount of evidence for evolution through natural selection and there is absolutely none for Intelligent Design. You claim to know and understand God's intelligence, I would like to see some conclusive evidence that is able to withstand intense critical scrutiny that your postulated God even exists. Once such evidence is provided, then your baseless assertion might actually be worth considering.

Atheism is the default stance for those who are not willing to accept the existence of a supernatural entity for which no supporting evidence exists. Scientists try to disprove new scientific hypothesis, and if a hypothesis cannot be disproved it becomes more and more credible, this is what has happened with evolution by natural selection. That is the beauty of science, no amount of evidence can definitively prove a hypothesis, just make it more probable and with that evolution by natural selection is very very probable. I am disgusted that would call these stances absurd, when it is in fact very much the opposite. Good day.

Well, I can see that we are at odds here. You say there is an overwhelmingly large amount of evidence for evolution through natural selection and absolutely none for Intelligent Design. I contend the exact opposite. I'm right, you're wrong. So show me the proof for your contention.

And I don't want to hear that you are speaking of changes within a species. any 8 year old kindergarten drop out knows that. Show me ONE item of proof of macroevolution.

If scientists cannot disprove something, you say, then it becomes more probable that it is fact. The Holy Bible has been tested, attacked, burned, and cursed for around 2,000 years and has not been disproved...so how come you pass it off as worthless? Sorry

"There is no simple DNA and there is no way it could have developed accidentally" Whilst I of course agree with you that DNA is never "simple", to say "there is no way it could have developed accidentally" or, as you seem to be implying, "there is no way it could have developed via natural selection", that is false. This point sounds like an argument from incredulty. I also contend your twisting of "If scientists cannot disprove something, you say, then it becomes more probable that it is fact. The Holy Bible has been tested, attacked, burned, and cursed for around 2,000 years and has not been disproved...so how come you pass it off as worthless?". There are two different kinds of thing that cannot be disproven. a) facts of the world which cannot be disproven because they are inaccurate. b) "teapot in orbit" claims that cannot be disproven because of the "Moving the goalposts" fallacy.

I would also like to point out that creationism is not science, and yet you try to speak in terms of evidence and proof? Do you take a hypothesis, test that hypothesis, and change it based on the conclusions of your test? No. You said yourself the Holy Bible has remained unchanged and unchallenged for 2,000 years (which is in itself false thanks to numerous mistranslations and contradictions). This is not science, it is attempting to twist evidence to fit your pre-determined doctrine.

I have about a million other points, but as you have already made crystal clear in your replies to other comments along the lines of mine, you have no interest at all in investigating any evidence is put before you: "It makes little difference what current scientific misunderstanding does or does not claim."

I bet if science started claiming there was a god who created the universe you'd leap to its defence. You logic is flawed and blinkered, and you ask above about evidence for macroevolution: unfortunatly this is impossible to show to a creationist whose mind is already closed. Macroevolution is a convinient thing for you as once again you incoporate a "moving the goalposts" startegy and ALWAYS flatly deny that whatever evidence is before your eyes is false. An interesting article but certainly not accurate in any sense of the word.

'"You fail to explain where the miniscule "singularity" originated' - indeed, I cannot explain for sure where it originated. However, there are a number of possibilities. There's nothing wrong with admitting you don't know everything, that's one of the parts of the scientific method that makes your implication that science is arrogant look a little unfounded.


"Then you say that if external creator were able to control the universe, it would not be a closed system. Who ever said that He controls it? "

Well, I certainly didn't. I said if the creator could *influence* the universe. Do you deny the creator can influence the universe? If yes, then the Bible is shown to be false as it describes many direct influences of the creator in the universe. If no, my original point stands.


" You have no answers as to the beginning or those other things which you classify rightly as hypotheses. But a Creator answers them all. Sorry."

Well, I do have some answers, but I'm not sure they are right yet. But even if they're wrong, that doesn't mean goddidit. A creator as an explanation for the universe just pushes us back to needing an explanation for the creator.

As to evidence of 'macroevolution' (by which you presumably mean speciation), there's a lot.

Speciation has been observed.

Some evidence here: evolution berkeley edu evositeevo101 VC1fEvidenceSpeciation
and here:
talkorigins org faqs faq-speciation
and here:
nature com nature journal v441 n7097 abs nature04789

as to your argument that the Bible is a worthwhile source of truth because it has been around for a long time and tested, this fails on two obvious levels.

Firstly, it has failed the tests. It contains numerous self-contradictions (skepticsannotatedbible com contra by_name html for collection of the more obvious ones), and is at odds with observed reality and with contemporary morality (where, for example, genocide is frowned upon rather than sometimes given divine blessing).

Secondly, the Qur'an and other non-Christian religious texts have been around a long time as well. Your argument applies to them just as strongly as it does to Christianity

Since you seem to accept microevolution, what do you believe is the mechanism that prevents this becoming speciation over time?

Speciation has not been observed. The mechanism that makes me reject macroevolution is that there are changes which cannot take place as does microevolution. Different hearts, lungs, etc. just don't occur. Go read my article "Can Biblical Inerrancy Be Proven? A Challenge" and then write one, disproving it. We are using far too much space here and these little stabs at each other are getting us nowhere. You won't believe anything I say and I certainly will not believe anything you cannot back up with proof. And you can't.

Off the top of my head? What, the right fossils placed in the right rock strata isn't enough? Well, I'm not an expert on the subject, but perhaps you should take a look at the quite considerable body of literature on the subject?

Speciation has been observed, I included links,but they might not have worked - no matter, evidence of speciation is common and a simple google search for "evidence of speciation" will demonstrate the falseness of your assertion that speciation has not been observed. The evidence available is from numerous reputable sources. However, since you flatly reject evidence presented to you, without justification, further discussion is, as you suggested, pointless, albeit not for the reasons you gave. Thank you for your time!

Thanks, JL. I needed that. They've been on a rampage today. But they don't bother me that much. I have had dialogues with atheists in letters to the editor of our daily paper for years. They usually won't read what you ask them to. I have almost 200 quotes from evolutionists who admit they have nothing to back up their claims, yet they believe the proof will come. It's been 150 years and millions of fossils since Darwin and they still have no links between species. They are not missing links. They are non-existing links.
I appreciate your remarks.

talkorigins /faqs/faq-transitional (you will have to remove the spaces again, am afraid)

Just a quick link to a short list of some of the transitional fossils that have been discovered. You keep emphasising, and I noticed in your "Can Bible inerrancy be proven?" article as well, that evolutionists have "None". Well here's a massive list for you. It isn't the most comprehensive list in the world but it is pretty well done and it was easy to find.

Given the rarity of an event that a creature actually leaves behind a fossil I would say this is pretty impressive. Obviously there are gaps, but that is because if EVERY creature that died was fossilized, we would be up to the ears in fossils. It is, however, an extremely rare event. If you don't consider the fossils on this list transitional fossils, then may i ask why not? And what WOULD you consider a transitional fossil?

Well, not those. Here is a quote from one of your very prominent evolutionists.
A quote from Dr. Niles Eldredge sums up the facts pretty well: "...geologists have found rock layers of all divisions of the last 500 million years and no transitional forms were contained in them." Dr. Eldredge further said, "...no one has yet found any evidence of such transitional creatures." (Evolution Is A Farce, CSTNews)

Thanks so much April, I do appreciate it. I agree that Stein deserves a lot of credit for this. These people are coercing their own colleagues who try to be honest about their findings. And they are in positions that can destroy one's career. That is why they can stand back and say, "the concensus in the scientific community..." Those found doing such should be stripped of their credentials and lose THEIR job.
