farlaEpic fail, IDers. Epic.
The best part of it is the trailer, which actually says, while trying to make the case the ebil Darwinists are surpressing free speech, that:
"What was so daming about this article? Nothing, as far as I could tell... Dr. Myer argued that there are signs of intelligent design in nature. The digital code in our DNA could not have come about by accident. Instead of a cosmic mistake, he says that the evidence seems to indicate that we are the product of a higher intelligence. Publishing Dr. Myer's paper would not have been an issue if we were living in the time of Galileo."
Yes, Galileo. Because Galileo, that's a time of just rampant free speech. Unlike our modern Darwinists who go aroundthreatening to torture old men to death putting people on trial for disagreeing with them keeping people under house arrest banning books not publishing papers on intelligent design in scientific journals. If there's one thing historical evidence tells us, it's that Galileo would weep to see how religion is taken out of the scientific sphere in modern times.
You can't make this stuff up. Go to four minutes in and hear it for yourself.
The lolarity continues over on its wikipedia page. My favorite line was Purdom is glad that the film will highlight the discrimination against scientists who rely on the Bible, instead of human reason, for their work. Next up, Purdom takes on the discrimination against astronomers who rely on the Bible, instead of telescopes.

Date: 2008-01-19 02:09 am (UTC)Just as there is no such thing as "scientists who rely on the Bible" (they are not really scientists), there is no such thing as priests who ignore the Bible completely in favour of science.
