Win Ben Stein's Intelligent Design

ben steinExpelled is a new movie by Ben Stein.  He is most known for his Clear Eyes commercials and his game show, Win Ben Stein's Money.  However, his new movie takes a much more serious tone.  Go watch the trailer and see for yourself.  Evidently, the premise of the movie is to expose the out-right persecution of scientist who believe in some for of creation that does not fall in line with Darwin's theory of evolution.  

I believe Ben is Jewish and therefore somewhat partial to the creation story in Genesis.  But the trailer indicates that he is not necessarily promoting intelligent design as a theory to replace evolution, but more concerned with the overt inability to question evolution at all.  A great line from the trailer points out that most people who are confident in their beliefs are actually welcoming of criticisms.  The assumption is that if one is confident in their beliefs, it is because they have understood some of the basic criticisms and have answers for them.  Therefore, when people hold to a belief and are not willing to answer critics and engage in dialogue, it appears that they do not have great answers to the criticisms.  It should be a great movie and good for dialogue.
