The whole article is about how the CREATIONISTS PRODUCERS DID NOT MISREPRESENT THE STATEMENTS OF YOUR TEMPLE OF DARWIN CO-RELIGIONISTS. So by all mean, please demonstrate where they twisted their words, and I won’t call you a typical evo-liar for Darwin’s anti-science creation myth.
Soooo...creationists repeatedly secure interviews with scientists under false pretenses, and then edit the results to make the scientists look foolish. As a result, scientists become wary of giving interviews to creationists. And that makes creationists some kind of victims? Wow, okay, sure, whatever you say.

Actually no. I’m sure there’s enough blame to go around but don’t pretend it’s 100% the creationists fault and please stop whining if a fraction of evo tactics are used against them.
Lord Haw Haw...LOL! the English nazi propogandist, speaking of course in the heavy British accent about the Brits losing war efforts, etc.
Shoot, I wonder if he survived the war?
Is that what happened here? Have you read the interviewees' description in the July Newsletter of the History of Science Society, vol 38, No 3? Have you read the account of the controversy in CMI? Have you seen the film? Can you demonstrate how the interviewees statements were deceptively edited? You've now made the issue a question of the morality of your propagandist use of loaded words to deceptively describe an event that has not developed to your liking.
