'Expelled': Intellectual Bankruptcynew

The most bizarre thing about the new intelligent design propaganda film Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed isn't that former Nixon speechwriter Ben Stein is being paid to extol a pseudoscience whose hypotheses can't be tested. It's that the filmmakers don't seem to understand the tenets of intelligent design.

'Expelled': Another Expression of the Right Wing's Victim Complexnew

The film claims not to be about atheism vs. religion or Darwinism vs. Intelligent Design, but rather about academic freedom. I'll agree with the first half of that: Among the reasons this film was made, religion is second and science (at best) third. But the No. 1 agenda has much less to do with academic freedom than with political ideology.
