Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

One of my favorite organizations, Answers in Genesis, has soundly endorsed a new movie coming out today called "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed".  Take a look at some comments from Ken Ham, the President of AIG:

I urge you to go to one of the 1,000 movie theaters that will be showing the excellent and entertaining documentary Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed, which starts today.

I have already attended two previews of Expelled, and I look forward to seeing it again—that's how great this film truly is. It exposes how radical evolutionists will persecute those who don't accept evolution. It gives many examples of scientists and others whose careers have been ruined by the "evolution police"—yet at the same time manages to be humorous, thanks to its witty host (actor Ben Stein) and the insertion of funny movie clips.

Although Stein is not a biblical creationist and comes from a Jewish background, we have found some common ground with him, as he does a masterful job of exposing the scientific problems with Darwinian evolution as well as the ruthlessness of its defenders in suppressing academic freedom. It's not a Christian film, but it is very much worth your time because you will get a better understanding of the creation/evolution battle and how it is on the front lines of the culture war. Plus, you will see compelling evidence for design in the universe.

To find a showing, go to the film's website, and if you don't see one of your local movie houses listed, call the theater's manager and urge that it be shown. Your recommendation can go a long way to getting the film played and having your community see it. Or ask your pastor to call and ask how the church can book a showing of Expelled and then fill the theater with church members and guests.

Previews of the film have been met with standing ovations. Go see it for yourself and be prepared to stand up and cheer. (By the way, look for the scene in the film where protestors are picketing our Creation Museum!) For the moment, watch a trailer, endorsements, and video clips of Expelled at:

Remember: Expelled comes out tomorrow, April 18. Your support for the movie could help ensure that millions more people see the powerful evidence for design and learn about the loss of academic freedom at the hands of evolutionists.

This movie ties in to several things I blog about regularly: rampant liberalism and brainwashing in our public school system, the squelching of dissent, and the radical Left.  Once again, this is not a Bible-thumping Christian movie.  It is a documentary that portrays a big problem in America today.  Go check it out, and give it some thought.  I plan to.

There's my two cents.
