@Dave
While you make an interesting point, I would reply that I am not concerned as much with Ben Stein’s documentary as the unsupported belief if supports. My problem is with Intelligent Design as a scientific theory more-so than with whatever support Stein dredges up for the ‘theory.’

While we do understand that Intelligent design cannot be proven scientifically, and is therefore impossible. I believe the real question is why do people still desire to cling to the idea that their is a creator who can completely ignore the known laws of physics to create us.

Personally the real BS is how people in power use these beliefs to persuade others to doing what they want them to do.

That’s exactly my point. He’s utilizing the same practice that he is critizing.

“You have not utilized any scientific basis for your statements. ”

Just like the boneheads that believe in this bullshit.

If he wants to be taken seriously, yes he does need something else. It’s interesting that you seem to support science in the area of intelligent design but do not require the same standards to be set upon reviewing something (regardless of how absurd) challenging the mainstream scientific community. I’m not insinuating that Ben is correct. I’m simply stating that until you’ve seen the movie. You have not utilized any scientific basis for your statements. This is exactly the opposite practice of the point you are trying to make in regards to intelligent design.
