"No Intelligence Allowed"

Apr 17, 2008 16:14

You may or may not have seen commercials for this, but Ben Stein is coming out with a documentary, which is commonly referred to as "Expelled".  Now, when I first heard of this, I thought about seeing it. I am somewhat amused by Ben Stein, and I used to watch "Win Ben Stein's Money", so I thought 'Oh, Ben... Haha.'  But as the commercial has been playing, I keep picking up on more and more key phrases being used. The evil sounding teacher's saying phrases like "Unguided and undesigned" and "the Theory of Evolution" ... in fact, it was said just like that. The teacher wasn't even speaking in complete sentences. Then Ben is sent to the principal's for asking "Where does life come from?"

I didn't really put things together until today, when I saw the full trailer. Ben Stein is making a movie about how Creationists are being persecuted in this country. How evolution is being taught and forced down people's throats. ARG!! And then I find out what the whole title of the piece is: "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed". And I thought... you know, that's pretty much going to be the requirement for fans of this movie. "Going to see Expelled? I'm sorry, no intelligence allowed."
