yup....they ('Evolutionists') debate in groups and packs. They're like wolves. If you single them out individually they're weak, and their theory gets exposed -- but their strength comes in numbers. The more numbers they have the louder their bark becomes and the more intimidating they are -- or they think they are. It's a philosophy that goes back to their theory itself -- ToE is a theory of populations -- the strength is in the population, not in the individuals. Evos are never high on individual creativity or on giving people the right to think for themselves, or on self-reliance. That's why most of them are against capitalism and freedom of speech. This is why most of them are anti-american libs....they favor a strong government, not strong and free individuals. So here on Carm, they've formed their own "government" of sorts and use it to snuff out those who don't tote the party line.

[Wow, it's not a conspiracy.]

no...no conspiracy....it's just like if you have a class full of dunces -- they're all stupid -- they all think the same way; no conspiracy. Same here -- except you're not dumb; you're atheists...and you all think the same way. Not only that, but you never contradict or question each other. You never talk out any details about the theory or about how each person feels specifically.....it's all very shallow....it's all about being on the same team with your comrads -- it's all about hating creationists/Christians and beating us with a stick.

Expelled was excellent. It was the top documentary in the U.S. for 2008. It documents the willingness of Darwinists to destroy the careers of brilliant people -- many of them evolutionists -- for not adhering to the party line. The premise is hard to argue with since it is often evolutionists who have been destroyed by the Darwin establishment.

The top Darwinists interviewed in the flim come off sounding stupid -- for instance Richard Dawkins says that we might some day find that DNA came from aliens -- and the people who have been destroyed by Darwinists come off sounding intelligent and reasonable.

My one quibble was that I thought it tried a little too hard to be cute and fast paced by splicing bits of illustrative imagery between points Ben Stein and the interviewees made. Most of these clips were from the early days of movies.

This gave the DarwiNazis an excuse to call the film propaganda when the premise of the flim stands without the insertion of the illustrative imagery -- it just would not have been as entertaining to watch and probably wouldn't have done as well as it has.

A follow up book called Slaughter of the Dissidents by Jerry Bergman continues the account of those destroyed by the DarwiNazis for daring to think outside the party line. I'm looking forward to reading it and hoping we'll see Expelled II -- Revenge of Intelligence.
