We knew to was coming, but I’m disappointed (so far) at the lack of counter opinions on many of the media/movie review sites.
I mean I know that this is due in part to the fact that most Conservatives have children to take care of, (because they didn’t abort them all) & because they have jobs they need to go to instead of having their hand out as a Liberal minion, or being one of those who spend their all time making sure the successful vote buying of the Democrats continues. I realize that these who collect welfare at the expense of those who are at work all day, do have more time to sit home & write more negative reviews on Ben Stein’s brilliant movie “Expelled”. However, we need to take time to defend truth, since these attackers are only interested in squashing it to protect their world views, their Government grants, & their welfare checks.
One thing that has been missed in the debate is this; How can you advocate liberal style “separation” of church & state, & then dutifully investigate intelligent design as a so called “scientist”?
The answer is, you can’t! Something has to give, or you don’t get any grant money. This is one of the reasons they hate the idea, & would rather stay in their little financial & ideological comfort zones!
The fact that these people don’t like the movie doesn’t bother me. What bothers me is the blatant lying they do while writing their reviews. Like one reviewer on Apple.com who said; “Darwin didn’t cause the Holocaust.” Nowhere in Stein’s movie does he say that Darwinism alone was sufficient to lead to the events. In fact, in the movie Stein himself says that though many of the principles of Darwin were believed by Hitler, he doesn’t think that was the only factor that led to the Holocaust. Other’s interviewed in the movie came to the same conclusion.
What is amazing to me is how badly todays Scientists have turned on science itself, & traded in the principled questioning & searching for answers, for the protection of their own political, social or religious ideologies. For instance, like it or not, their atheism is a “faith” of sorts. It takes faith to believe anything that you weren’t around to see. Scientists & Darwinists can cry all they want but that’s a fact they can’t change no matter how hard they try.
Most notably in Steins movie, the flagship or Darwinism Richard Dawkins is cornered by logic itself, into admitting that Intelligent design is possible. On a comical note though, he feebly tries to save face for the movement by suggesting that a superior race of beings could have created the first cell & then disappeared. Yes, he actually suggested Aliens were possibly responsible, but yet he call those who believe in God delusional?
Huh? If they were superior to us or God, then where did they go? & where did they come from in the first place? What did they make the cell from?
Very disappointing showing by Mr. Dawkins to say the least. It was almost sad to watch him reduced to intellectual cannon fodder by Ben Stein.
In any case, you need to ignore the flood of leftist reviews that are trying to slander the movie, & silence it. (You know, those leftist champions of free speech & the media.)
Yes, they want to silence Ben Stein, & anyone who they don’t agree with. The movie stands on it’s own, & I’d encourage anyone to go see it & make up your own mind, instead of listening to fascist liberals who will go as far as to blatantly lie about it, to convince people not to go.
I do however also encourage you to look around the web & read their venomous reviews. Ask yourself why they are so angry? Why so viscous? What are they so afraid of? If the movie is so ridiculous & pointless as they claim, then why are they spending their time defending Darwin & attacking Ben Stein’s “Expelled” so veraciously?
It’s because they want to pontificate to you about what’s suitable for your viewing, & tell you what you should watch. Didn’t Hitler burn books? Create a state run media? Try to control the knowledge & communication?
Go see the movie while you live in a country where you can make up your own mind. Because if you don’t? There will come a day where the right you didn’t exercise, becomes a right you’ve lost.
I’ve been seeing liberal media elites around the web running to the aid of Dana Jacobson by accusing Christians of being unforgiving, yet last year they nearly universally called for Grey’s anatomy actor Isaiah Washington’s head on a platter until they finally got it, because he called someone a “fagot” in an argument. Don Imus was portrayed by the same as spawn of satan for saying “Nappy Headed Hoes” in reference to the Rutgers girls basketball team, & dropped by his network as a result.
So again, why the double standard from these main stream media hypocrites? How can they justify letting a blatantly vulgar insult to Jesus Christ himself & all Christians stand, by letting Dana Jacobson keep her job without apologizing specifically for her insult to Jesus?
I’d like her to explain to me what Jesus did to her to both deserve the vulgar public insult, & then never receive a public apology? What Dana? What did he do to you?
She didn’t even apologize for, or admit what she really said! She made a general & vague apology, & that just added insult to injury.
Dana Jacobson’s poor excuse for an apology: (or more likely a publicists’ version)
“My remarks about Notre Dame were foolish and insensitive. I respect all religions and did not mean anything derogatory by my poorly chosen words.”
Where’s the apology to Jesus or Christians? Nowhere, that’s where..
ESPN, if you have nothing to hide, why not release the tape of the roast? We all know it exists, & then we can get a real apology, & have the whole truth out there. It’s hard to forgive someone when you’re not getting straight talk, or full disclosure from them that shows they are really sorry. Forgiveness also doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have to live up to the consequences of her actions. What amounts to one week’s vacation for Dana Jacobson is not really much of a “consequence” now is it? Some may ask if I’m trying to see her made an example of? YES! YES I AM! I want these media morons who can’t control their mouths to see that when you hurt people without even giving an honest apology, you are going to pay a price! I want her to apologize to Jesus & all Christians publicly. THEN, & ONLY THEN, will I stop calling for her to be fired.
Religious rights leader, Rev. Pat Mahoney of the Christian Defense Coalition, Thursday called for picketing and a prayer vigil outside ESPN’s Bristol, Conn., headquarters Friday at noon. He told Cybercast News Service that he plans to continue with the demonstration as planned.
“I respect Bill and the Catholic League, and I understand why he might do so,” Mahoney said. “But ESPN has to step up to the plate here. Imagine the outrage if Ms. Jacobson said, ‘F–k Mohammed,’ ‘F–k Jews,’ or ‘F–k African-Americans.’”
“We’re simply asking that the parent company of ESPN, ABC, treat this incident the same way they did when Isaiah Washington publicly used the word ‘fag’ when referring to a cast member,” Mahoney said. “Although the faith community can forgive and extend mercy to Ms. Jacobson, she still must assume full responsibility and accept the consequences for her hate-filled rhetoric.”
Again, I promise ESPN I will write about this ever week until we get a specific & sincere apology from Dana Jacobson for maligning the name of Jesus Christ without an apology, or she is fired. We need better quality personnel in media, & this slap on the wrist she was given is not how to set the example.
