What the hell does he have to do with whether evolution is good science?

It has NOTHING to do with the validity of evolution, and Stein never said that it did, nor do I.

Very good. Then you'll agree that bringing up Hitler in a discussion of evolution is inflammatory and irrelevant.

That was my point, and I'm glad we're in agreement now.

No, Ben Stein and you never sought to intimate that Evolution could be untrue or evil or despicable by linking it with Hitler. Heaven forfend!/s

They had a few hours to outline the case for I.D., the “persecution” that those “cdesign proponentists” face from empirical Science (which I.D. has vowed to destroy) and outline the supposed Scientific failings of the theory of Evolution through Natural Selection. Instead they devoted much of that time to talking about Hitler.

Gee, I wonder what point they WERE trying to make!
