Stein rox!
There are many things I like about Ben Stein—his comedy trivia show, his sense of humor, his commentary on Fox News economic issues, his political commentary (also on Fox) and his “I don’t care what you think” style of honesty.
This is just one more thing to like about him. Way to go, Mr. Stein!

Where are all the evolutionists to say how everyone else is an idiot?? Not posting yet?
ID
Mark Levin calls it right when he exposes the Libs for what they really mean when they use the word “neo-con”. What they’re really talking about are “the Jews”. A conservative Jew is their worst nightmare. More Jewish people are waking up to the fact conservative social and economic values are closer to their own. Ben is great in the political debate. He should run for office.
I’d be happy to say that young earth creationism is idiocy if you’d like, but I do support Stein’s thesis and his brand of ID. Actually, come to think of it, I support almost everything Ben Stein says. Perhaps he could run for president.
In any event, young earth creationists glomming on to the scientific side of the ID movement and making us all look like dopes who believe that the dinosaurs and Adam and Eve shared a planet have done almost as much harm as the left wing. Legitimate scientists who say “yes, there is evolution but there are signs of direction within evolution that could not be caused by chance” get it on both sides: from the young earth silliness and from the left wing.
Ping.
Count me in on the “there is evolution but there are signs of direction within evolution that could not be caused by chance” crowd. I think pure creationist and pure evolutionist are both right and wrong. One is wrong on time frame and the other is wrong on intent.
Lead role?
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Fact checker to aisle 3 for a clean up.
Most are on Darwin Central, having been banned or Opused out.
I'm sure they will try to make a version of "FReeper Funnies" out of this thread though.
Cheers!
Seems like both the Discovery Institute and the NEA would approve of this.
Cheers!
Here is an interesting site that provides a resolution to the young earth / old earth debate. It all depends on your relativistic frame of reference: http://www.geraldschroeder.com/age.html (See particularly: “15 billion Years or 6 days” at the bottom of the website page)
I think Stein’s small role in FBDOFF expands in the public consciousness because of the commercial with Stein repeating “Bueller. Bueller...” Very funny very smart and very blessed man, Ben Stein.
Challenges to Darwinism inevitably devolve into a comparison between it and Intelligent Design, thus letting the fatally flawed theory of Darwin off the hook to be foisted off on our schoolchildren another day.
Darwinism must be made to stand on its own, without comparison to any other theory or idea. But so far, about the only defense of Darwinism that ever seems to hold up is to reverse the field and attack ID. If nothing else, that reflects the bankruptcy of the theory.
LOL Your author gets it absolutely backwards. According to his theory the days should be longer today than they were a billion years ago. At the beginning of the universe everything was closer and it took much less time for light to travel across the universe. Now it takes literally an infinity for light to travel across the universe (it can never do it). According to his theory the entire universe should only be a couple of thousand years old.
You young earthers will believe anything^^
