A friend of mine from college who lives in Vermont inadvertently drew a firestorm on Facebook when she simply posted a link to an article about the University of Vermont not permitting Ben Stein's documentary Expelled to be shown on its campus. The mere posting of the link brought on derision and insults from many of her so-called friends, many of whom openly scorned the documentary and also the very notion of Intelligent Design.
Having previewed the documentary myself, it is clear that those posters did not watch the film or they would have known that they were flaunting the very ignorance highlighted in it, especially since Intelligent Design is not synonymous with Creationism. Additionally, many of the claims that these Facebookers made were - as addressed in the documentary - not science-based, but of the metaphysical realm.
I watched Expelled a second time recently and continue to be amazed not only at the frightening intolerance for free thought and speech in Big Science (at the Smithsonian Institute, universities across America, and in journalism) but also the fact that our tax money is propping up so much junk science. All this when modern scientists can not agree on where life originated, but insist that Intelligent Deisgn - in other words, a guided process - can not even be so much as mentioned in the debate. It further floored me, as a German major, to discover the glaring link between Darwinism and the horrors the Nazis committed on human beings, and realize that for the six years I studied German language and culture - both in the United States and abroad - not one of my instructors ever felt it important to mention the tie.
Of course, all that has been happening in the last century with real science being diluted and victimized by a select group, then paraded in our schools as gospel truth, was predicted long ago as being a sign of the last days (2 Peter 3:3-5). It is interesting, too, that scientists such as Newton and Boyle and Pasteur were men of faith, and that their knowledge of science simply reinforced what they already believed, and vice versa. As the Irish scientist Kelvin stated, "Do not be afraid of being free thinkers! If you think strongly enough you will be forced by science to the belief in God. You will find science not only atagnostic but helpful to religion." Of course, one can assume that Kelvin was addressing the religious establishment with that statement. His assertion, however, is the very thing that those who made Expelled possible are trying to avoid.
If you've seen the documentary, I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts, and if you haven't, it's an eye-opener and worthy of watching. I leave you with two quotes 
"Surely God would not have created such a being as man, with an ability to grasp the infinite, to exist only for a day! No, no, man was made for immortality." -Abraham Lincoln
And this from an unknown source - On Creationism, Naturalism, and Pantheism: "Every thing has to have come from something else, therefore something has to be eternal!"
