He is saying that academics have gotten so bigoted and intolerant that they simply will not allow any diversity of opinion or arguments with their beliefs.

That's simply inaccurate. If that had been what the film was about, it wouldn't have been entirely about ID.

I've got lots of beefs with our universities and what they teach. This was only about one.

Stein most definitely was attacking Darwin. Blaming him for Nazi Germany is not only ludicrous, but a vicious attack.

Shame on Ben Stein. And shame on his defenders who deny what he's doing.

I haven’t seen the movie, but Hitler DID utilize Darwin to his own ends, and thanked eugenics professors in the U.S.

HOWEVER, if you think about, a VOLUME of films could be made on how liberal elitist professors are ruining the country from attacking our troops from Bezerkly, to gun loathing idiots to Harvard, to infanticide on demand in between.

Are you saying they get a free pass collectively or that Ben Stein shouldn’t even bother because he didn’t encompass all that’s wrong with liberal academia in one short 90 minute piece?

He wasn’t blaming Darwin for Nazism, he was blaming Nazis for believing in Darwinism. Marx isn’t accountable for Lenin’s bloodbath, but Lenin is still a fool for believing in Marx. Same sort of thing.
