Description
Big science has expelled smart new ideas from the classroom ... What they forgot is that every generation has its Rebel! That rebel, Ben Stein (Ferris Bueller?s Day Off) travels the world on his quest, and learns an awe-inspiring truth ? that educators and scientists are being ridiculed, denied tenure and even fired ? for the crime of merely believing that there might be evidence of design in nature, and that perhaps life is not just the result of accidental, random chance. To which Ben Says: Enough! And then gets busy. NOBODY messes with Ben.

 Truth in media format! January 8, 2009
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a great film! It clearly shows the agenda behind many scientists in academia. It helps if you have some experience studying the debate between ID and Darwinism. Also, I think the average viewer would benefit if they understood how significant the people being interviewed are. These aren't just loonies off the street, these are well respected "scientists."
It would be great is they included some interviews with people on the street that shows the average person's ignorance of the matter and their willingness to be fooled by media.

Very entertaining way of examining the absense of academic freedom today. Secular scientists (not all), moreso out of a subjective low opinion of religion than a quest for truth, bypass a right to express all viewpoints and rather turn the issue into a war of worldviews. Their foundation is based on a theory, whose author (Darwin) himself admits that if certain evidence fails to manfifest (and so far it has), the theory is rendered erroneous.

You will enjoy this movie if your science has no fear of the facts.
Ben Stein investigates allegations that some high-end colleges and universities are edging out professors if any hint of "intelligent design" surfaces in their classrooms.
A friend tells Ben of his expeience of losing his teaching position which is likely to have happened undersuch circumstances. That just seems so unlikely to Ben but after other interviews with a number of people who had been outed under similar circumstances,Ben heads to the source.
You have to laugh if it were not so serious as Ben treks from campus to campus asking questions that few but Ben Stein could pose so candidly. The answers he got named his movie; EXPELLED No Intelligence Allowed.
Even an Oxford professor finds it difficult to answer Bens straight forward questions and the theater audiences cheer.

It is unfortunate that this DVD is not required viewing in public schools and churches.

Very well put together and revealing how stupid the "intelectual" community really is when it comes to "higher" knowledge.
