- About Expelled The Movie
EXPELLED: No Intelligence Allowed, is an upcoming, history-changing film coming to theaters in APRIL 2008 in which host Ben Stein (Ferris Bueller's Day Off) goes on a quest to expose the suppression by science's anti-theist elite, and unveil new scientific facts that may suggest evidence of intelligent design in the universe.
For decades now, Neo-Darwinism has maintained a stranglehold within public education, suppressing all other theories on the origins of life -... (read more) - Privacy Type:

I saw this movie already in a private screening with the Producer, Mr. Ruloff. I admited that it was better than expected. The best was Doctor David Berlinski, I am trying to get some of his books.

Would be great if this movie reaches South America!

Unfortunately, this film does not have an Australian distributor yet. At the moment we do not have a release date and it may be a while before it is released in Australia if at all.
Chloe Thomas so when is the movie coming out - anyone know? i am in australia...

The significance of there being no universal tautologies or absolute certainty is that while you may doubt everything you can not fully accept anything to be either true or false based on sensory perception and thus science is only one tool in a toolbox to determine something's ontology. It reduces the decision to thr...ow away any claim without investigation from the ground up as very arrogant. Something can be labeled as insignificant, illogical, mysterious, questionable, or improbable based on research but not impossible.Read More
Cameron Gaul Oh and I have to bring you back again to the issue of actually investigating things even if you doubt them. You have yet to ask me any question at all that would give you a lead. I'll answer as best I can. I even accepted the trade you proposed, not because I believe you had an alien encounter but so you could keep your half of the deal. You didn't so far.
Cameron Gaul
There you go again with your cave-man like ways. Worry about yourself instead of trying to throw around insults at others.
In other words, tautologies may not be true but everybody believes in them. Language is an even better example than mathematics. What does "EL" mean? Its not a tautology because of the existence... of different languages. Some people might believe in not communicating to others and choose to live in isolation in which they really would not believe in language in terms of value, and may believe that language is so uncertain due to the difference between a message being sent and a message being received that one might not believe in language in terms of purpose either.
What I was getting at by making you go through what you did is that there are no tautologies if tautologies must be accompanied by absolute certainty. The only thing to which one may be absolutely certain (though not everybody is even in this case) is that the self exists.Read More

...Mathematics is based on tautologies. Those are things that are defined in themselves. Another example would be your name. I know my name is Jason with absolute certainty, because it is what I have been called all my life, and it is how I identify myself.
Another interesting facet of tautologies is that what is used t...o described something is largely irrelevant. I could be "Mike" or "Joe" or whatever, but it would be the name that identifies me. The value for 3 could be "circle" or "fjdakfsd" or anything else, but what we call three has certain characteristics. Triangle plus cjsajflksa equals irituvoie, or 6+4=10, it doesn't matter.
But in a tautology, mathematics has defined what the aspects of itself are. Claiming that some people don't believe in math is exactly the same as claiming some people don't believe in language.
Your overall ignorance is atrocious. You score at least a 36 on the Hovind scale and should honestly try and learn a tiny bit about the subject.Read More

As far as your attempt to judge God it may just be that God knows more than you and has some larger perspective that is influencing His actions... such as the difference between spiritual blessing and material blessing, and seeing the physical life through the lens of eternal afterlife. Again, if God exists then etern...al afterlife probably exists too so it doesn't make sense to assume a situation in which one is there without the other. Basically you are trying to blame everything bad on God while taking everything good and keeping it completely separate from God. You're more happy to believe in the devil than God I guess because it gives you a focus for all of your pessimism.Read More

I personally do not believe in your alien story but am not so full of myself that I'll just dismiss it if you want me to investigate it, in exchange for you investigating my story, which you again are currently trying to dodge. Its clearly fear on your part but you can feel free to prove my wrong by actually doing it....
What you are trying to say is that you can't explain tautologies, nor prove them. They just are. The problem is that you don't know what to do if someone disagrees with you except spew insults and show the immature kid inside of you. Trying to shame your opponent into backing down is typical primal behavior to compensate for reason but it doesn't work over internet. I personally believe in mathematics but if I show you someone who doesn't, (maybe some sad person like who you think God is neglecting so that guilt will keep you from resorting to being snotty) you can't react because you can't see past your own world-view.Read More

Jason Lent I can liken this conversation to chess with pigeons: You swoop in, crap all over the table, knock the pieces over, and fly back to your coop declaring victory.

...you're an idiot, I'm really not too sure how I can continue explaining how math, as a tautology, works.
Wait, you actually believe I was abducted by aliens? You ARE as naive as I had imagined. But, until I meet you in person, I can't research your medical records, because they don't mail medical records (or reveal th...em to other people) due to privacy acts. So, your claim is conveniently immune to investigation.
And if my assumption that God isn't healing other people because he is too busy, what does that mean, does that mean that those babies deserved to drown, or get crushed? Or maybe those fathers and mothers who were killed by cancer and taken away from their families, deserved to go through a painful (physical and emotional ordeal)? So, either your god is weak, or a dick.Read More

Prove that 2+2=4 for everybody and show how you know that something is true. Your world-view is very significant in that it shows why you think the way you do and if you aren't able to understand other world-views, you are just going to be frustrated in wondering why everybody doesn't think the way you do.
Fine, I'll s...tart with the alien investigation. Please start with where and when the abduction took place, or just anything you remember about it at all which might point me in some direction. I can guarantee you that I can at least give you enough info on me to do an investigation, although you are obviously stalling b/c you probably realize you could be wrong.Read More

You are asking me to judge God from a limited human understanding but I did respond to your issue. I said that humans do not compete against each other for miracles so your question is invalid. Being good or special has nothing to do with it. Your comment on "God being too busy" shows that you have this idea that i...f God heals me, He doesn't have time to heal someone else as a result. That's an unfounded assumption. To compare what you are asking me to do in a very simple analogy... its like me finding animal tracks in the woods but before you are willing to believe it is an animal I have to explain to you why the thing moved in the specific path that it did. Not being equipped to answer "Why would God" provides absolutely no answer to the question "Did God do it?".
Prove that 2+2=4 for everybody. You said yourself its a tautology which is self defined, basically meaning you assume it. If anybody in the world does not and will not believe that 1=1, then in their presence it isRead More
