Ben Stein, the TV personality, writer, actor, lawyer, economist, and speechwriter for Presidents Nixon and Ford has a new film out called Expelled. In it, he talks to various academicians who say they were punished for taking positions doubting Darwin and promoting creationism or Intelligent Design.
The film won’t be released until April, but it’s been setting fires for months. Last year several advocates of the theory of natural selection (including Richard Dawkins, the author of “The God Delusion”) were interviewed. Dawkins thought he was to appear in a documentary called “Crossroads,” from Rampant Films, and only later did it morph into “Expelled,” from Premise Media. I am looking forward to seeing this documentary.
