Atheist Scientists in Uproar over Movie Showing Intolerance of Evidence for Intelligent Design

Problem with Dawkins is that he’s the quintessential whiner.

[damondonion]

Superb. We have something like 200,000,000 dead bodies lying around from this idea of a man’s neighbor being a meat byproduct of random events rather than a fellow child of God, and it’s way past time somebody called the idiots on it.

[Star Traveler]

Sounds like something I’ve got to see, along with the new Creation museum in Kentucky. W00T... LOL!

No, really, I’ve got to see them both... really, I mean it...

[HerrBlucher]

Crybaby athiests bump.

Whether you favor evolution or ID, bottom line is these atheists act like sniveling leftist bullies who can’t tolerate any dissent. If your theory is valid, it will speak for itself, and you don’t have to use totalitarian tactics to prove it’s validity.

If you can’t run with the dogs, don’t come out of the doghouse.

[Thumper1960]

Mr. Dawkins may know by now that God works in mysterious ways.

Nothing like lots of free publicity to help out a flick.

Going there next month on a Church outing.

The "evidence" for ID is laid out in the Wedge Strategy.

A sample:

We are building on this momentum, broadening the wedge with a positive scientific alternative to materialistic scientific theories, which has come to be called the theory of intelligent design (ID). Design theory promises to reverse the stifling dominance of the materialist worldview, and to replace it with a science consonant with Christian and theistic convictions....

Governing Goals

• To defeat scientific materialism and its destructive moral, cultural and political legacies.
• To replace materialistic explanations with the theistic understanding that nature and human beings are created by God.

No science there, except creation "science." And in fact, in the Dover decision, a federal judge determined that ID was creation "science" with the serial numbers filed off.

A MUST SEE for my wife and I.

[Evie Munchkin]

I’d love to see this movie and I wish it were being released earlier. My baby is due in early February, so it may be hard to get out of the house for a couple of hours.

EXPELLED's producers say they aren't surprised by the academic uproar over the film because it is consistent with what happens on university campuses when students or professors question atheistic materialism.

That's the point right there. That's what they are afraid of. When the light of truth shines, the roaches scatter.

[Archon of the East]

Boo Hoo deal with it Dawkins.I love it when people feel they step all over others then whine like spoiled child when someone disagrees. But we are talking about leftists and Democrats.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

"... when any scientist dares dissent from the view that all life on earth is the mere result of random mutation and natural selection."

Not even Charles Darwin believed that! The Theory of Evolution addresses the origin of species not the origin of life.

Meanwhile a new life form has been created in the lab -- which does seem to prove that Intelligent Design of lifeforms is feasible.

Yet he is now grumbling that the producers of EXPELLED: No Intelligence Allowed "tricked" him into doing an interview.

What's good enough for Michael Moore...

[Renderofveils]

Not even Charles Darwin believed that! The Theory of Evolution addresses the origin of species not the origin of life.

And follow that with a link to an article where scientists mutate an existing bacteria into another bacteria? That's not creation. That's mutation.

[scarface367]

We have something like 200,000,000 dead bodies lying around...

Ah yes, trot out the pathetic Darwin is responsible for all the world's evils nonsense. Why don't you just go ahead and blame Darwin for traffic jams, elevator music and the Broncos piss poor performance while your at it. It's only slightly less stupid to do so.

Meanwhile a new life form has been created in the lab -- which does seem to prove that Intelligent Design of lifeforms is feasible.

From the article in the Guardian:

The DNA sequence is based on the bacterium Mycoplasma genitalium which the team pared down to the bare essentials needed to support life, removing a fifth of its genetic make-up. The wholly synthetically reconstructed chromosome, which the team have christened Mycoplasma laboratorium, has been watermarked with inks for easy recognition.

Plagiarism!

Cheers!

Although these fellows deserve what they get, I do hope it is all quoted in context. We already have one too many Michael Moores. Not busting on the producers because I obviously haven’t seen it yet either, I just hope it is done fairly so the freaks can’t scream foul over it.
