The Playground for Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

'On the Formation of Homo sapiens by Intelligence' by Ben Stein.

...and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul [Genesis 2:7, King James].

The "dust to man" theory of human origins that has been "expelled" from the lexicon of scientific thinking--how did we miss the evidence , thank you Stein.

Advice to all teachers of biology, be a good scout, be prepared, see the movie. The war continues...it will never end.
The Playground for Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

It's all appeal to authority, strawman, and appeal to conspiracy. Much of what the argument entails is basically the Galileo Gambit. In essence, instead of supporting their own assertions, instead of showing where existing approaches are incorrect, they appeal to some ethereal censor who is preventing them from speaking.

I've got news for you. They have the floor. They've always had a method of expression, and an avenue for doing so. The reason it's not accepted is because it's wrong. If some scientist was shot down because he claimed there was no gravity, he'd be shot down due to contradictory evidence and lack of support for his claim, not some dogma about gravity itself.

It's fucking ludicrous, people. Prove you're right. Stop appealing to the aliens at area 52 crowd that the man is keeping you down. Prove you're right, and science ALWAYS listens. This is yet another example of increasing societal issue of sheeple belief systems, and it's just this type of hand waving unsupported crap that the religiots always seem to eat up. Unfortunate, really.

Just check out the preview. It'll reaffirm what I've posted here.


cdesign proponentsists, unite!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
