Did you listen to Michael Medved yesterday??? He had Ben Stein on for almost an entire hour, and Medved was talking about all the reviews out on Expelled -- all uniformly negative and quite a few were very nasty! But people were calling in to say that movie audiences were applauding at the end of the film, and this was happening coast-to-coast, so it will be interesting...Top 2 documentaries are Farenheit 911 and And Inconvenient Truth, so Medved was saying that it would be cool if Expelled knocked those two off the top of the list...

Also, in the film there is an interview with a prominent British athiest (self-described as THE most prominent), who has an absolute meltdown on screen...this guy then tried to have the movie stopped in federal court using several different ploys. Finally, Ben Stein went to federal court to get a summary judgement against him and won..very interesting behavior from people who claim that they have 'science' behind them...;-))

No I did not hear that, so appreciate your report. Thanks, Bit. It's here in town, and I'd sure like to see it...maybe after my mother's discharged from the hospital, and after youngest son leaves, and before my sister arrives.:-))

I did hear Stein on Prager's show a few days ago.

Fascinating stuff!
