This fun-to-watch, fast moving DVD really opened my eyes, and made me want more than ever to ensure that my children are taught freedom of thought when it comes to science.
Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed uncovers a sobering reality: educators and scientists are being ridiculed, denied tenure and even fired in some cases for the fact that they believe there is evidence of "design" in nature, challenging the idea that life is a result of random chance. Darwin's theories are presented as solid fact in school textbooks, even though scores of scientists, doctors, philosophers and public leaders, many who are not religious, maintain that in spite of what they formerly thought, the evidence is stacking up that Darwin may have been wrong in his Origin of the Species claims. The result is a startling revelation that freedom of thought and freedom of inquiry have been expelled from publicly-funded high schools, universities and research institutions.
Listen to amazing interviews with the best and brightest physicists, biological scientists, molecular biologists, educators, theologians and philosophers from over 25 countries. Scientists are supposed to be allowed to follow the evidence wherever it may lead, no matter what the implications are. Freedom of inquiry has been greatly compromised, and this is not only anti-American, it's anti-science. Its anti-the whole concept of learning.
