Ben stein i hope you read this comment you fuckin devil, once this country explodes wth revolution you will be branded a full born treasonous dog, and will die like one. spit on your future grave.
I don't agree with Ben Stein on putting intelligent design in schools with all due respect to the man. I just think he should stick with what he is good at, which is economics. We may disagree, but he seems to be a nice man who can respect other views.
BEN STEIN is an idiot if he really believes everything he says. He may be putting on an act just to capitalize on the nuts that follow him. Darwin explained evolution of already existing organisms and thats about it. The man can't really be that stupid although he does play a pretty good moron in his movie parts. Is it acting or does it come natural?
I don't get what the big deal is? If your a a religious person and you believe in god can't you just say that evolution is the answer to how and not to why? I think its perfectly applicable. Im not saying i know more than anyone else, it just seems to make more sense that way.
@RTRVII you dont get it. he's disagreeing with pompus darwinists that believe since they are starting to imply god might not have had influence on our existence that they're smarter than creationists.
@Ether165 Ben Stein believes in literal (biblical) creation and that IS in fact in contradiction with most scientific facts around. So I think it's pretty obvious that people who accept the obvious facts of evolution are indeed smarter than people who give credibility to an ancient book full of lies and silly stories about an angry god and his failed creation.
how is this guy taken seriously? 'darwinism' will predict that this guy will be killed by the church for embrassing them to such level that not even they could tolerate. it makes me embrassed to be human. if aliens have come to earth its a no wonder they dont want to make contact when people like him exist in such large numbers. there is no way he is for real...? it has to be an act. the mind boggles.
at what point did anyone claim that 'Darwinism' explains anything other than evolution? this guy is beyond retarded and the way in which he tries to imply that drug users are more inclined to agree with him enrages me beyond belief. I am sat smoking a reef right now but I understand the theory of evolution and don't bemoan it for not relating to gravity. he really thinks he's cool and its vomit inducing. Grade A imbecile
@nailedurmum01 people, on here, all the time, common people on streets or such who believe just because they dont believe in god they're smarter. He was making a counter example unrelated to darwinism to imply a higher power could have influenced the universe and perhaps in extent, evolution
@Ether165 He exclaims that the theory of evolution ''doesn't explain thermodynamics'' as if this is some kind of weakness ; Why the hell would it? The theory of thermodynamics explains thermodynamics and the theory of evolution explains evolution. Yes, a higher power COULD have influenced the universe, but until we have any proof or logical basis to think so, it is rather pointless to postulate the notion. btw 'darwinism' is not even a real word, it is only employed by creationists
@nailedurmum01 figured i couldn't have said what i said in my first comment without saying something about atheism if i didn't say 'darwinism'.... some people don't like the word atheism.
@Ether165 My original point is the most pertinent; when the hell has ANY scientist, EVER implied that the theory of evolution should explain gravity, thermodynamics, the origin of life and the universe, or anything other than what it sets out to describe; ie the diversity of life on earth?
@nailedurmum01 The existence of life on earth and it's diversity is directly related to these "forces". Strong interaction is one of four fundamental interactions of nature, gravitation being another one. There is no physical model (natural explanation) of what existed before the big bang because of a lack of a testable theory of quantum gravity. The theory of evolution as you understand it DOESN'T explain much of anything! Evolution has targets, and once achieved, no more evolution! dfpolis #17
@shizzleman8 What a bullshit post! So we should scrap the scientific method? Only when we have an utterly comprehensive understanding of the entire history and nature of the universe can we understand it's components? Bollocks. The theory of evolution pertains to the diversity of life and only that, it has nothing to do with physics, whether newtonian or quantum. The theory of evolution is simply our best model for describing the natural process of evolution which has been prooven to exist.
@nailedurmum01 YES! The scientific method is only a way to understand objects in reality, but observation changes reality! Bullocks?
Science ABSTRACTS away from obects experiential INTERACTION and KNOWING SUBJECTS, it's a complete FAILURE in understanding the Consciousness of MIND and it's influence in our universe.
btw & fyi Incredulity is bedfellow to denialism and neither make for a valid argument! Physics is the study of the PHYSICAL world. Bullocks?
@nailedurmum01 The theory of evolution is simply our best model for describing the natural process of evolution which has been prooven to exist. < Nope, not how you understand it. See my post below, mind has been proven not to be natural so your model sucks out loud. Randomness is natural and doesn't account for the fact that the "theory of evolution" isn't accepted as a random event. You didn't avail yourself to the video that PROVES evolution ceases, there goes your model a 3rd time!
@shizzleman8 A) ''mind has been proven not to be natural'' this is utter horseshite. B)I never stated the TOE was infalable truth; simply that it is our BEST model to describe the process so far. If you think 'god did it' is a more informative line of explanation then you are stupid. C) stop trying to employ quantum terminology to create the impression you know fuck all about science. Quantum theory does not pertain to what we are discussing. D) you can barely compose sentences.
@nailedurmum01 Your opinions are groundless, they don't even merit what could be understood as speculation. How many models are you aware of and what in the hell is "the process" that the The Theory of Evolution is describing, evolution?
"utter horseshite" isn't a compelling argument to impune 60 years of random number generator research that proves Mind over matter at a million to one odds! The human mind is supernatural, you're just an ignorant little prick! You're a DENIALIST too.
@shizzleman8 Yes,quite obviously the process under refrence would be evolution itself, give yourself a little medal. lol You people are so hilarious, You just incite some vauge, unquantifiable bollcks and then hope that employing a few pieces of quantum terminology will validate the claim. Please do present any peer review science that supports the notion that ''the humand mind is supernatural''.....this should be fucking funny
@nailedurmum01 This is your DUMBASS statement NOT mine, "The Theory of Evolution is the best model to describe the Theory of Evolution". WTF!?! I'm still trying to understand what your position is! This is no different than christian fundementalists saying the Bible is inerrant because the Bible says so! I'm laughing my ass off bro, are you from the UK?
I just gave you SIXTY YEARS of research that PROVES MIND OVER MATTER AT A MILLION TO ONE ODDS, and you ask me for evidence that proves . .
@shizzleman8 If you are going to misquote me then atleast have the common sence not to do it TO me! At NO POINT WHATSOEVER did I say ''the theory of evolution is the best model to describe the theory of evolution''. Seccondly, claiming that there is research does not amount to ''I just gave you sixty years of research''. I asked you to present evidence to validate the claim, you have so far given me nothing. btw 'mind over matter' is not neccessarily supernatural.
@nailedurmum01 U wrote, "TOE is the best model that describes the process so far", I asked you what "the process" is and you said it was TOE! That REDUCES to "TOE DESCRIBES TOE".
I make mistakes every day, I'm not judging your heart, I'm only trying to help.
Richard Dawkins developed an idea to REDUCE the odds of evolution happening randomly by breaking down the probablity of outcomes INCREMENTALLY, but if you toss 50 pennies at once or 5 sets of 10 in succession the odds are the SAME!
@shizzleman8 No I did not say the process in question was the theory of evolution, but simply evolution itself.ie the teo represents our best current understanding of the process of evolution that we know via proof to exist. Learn to read.
@nailedurmum01 The best way to know "via proof to exist" is through Physics/Metaphysics NOT Evolutionary Biology. Would ANYBODY other than a few biology students ever bought Dawkins book and knew who he was had he written "The Evolutionary Biology Delusion"? NO! He's ripping off God and Christ's Church for his own personal ingrandisement and megamaniachial ego, he's nothing more than a charlatan, a wolf in sheep's clothing claiming knowledge in a field he has no degrees: THEOLOGY. A coward.
@shizzleman8 lol No the best way to explain the diversity of life on earth is not through physics or metaphysics, seeing as these scientific fields do not pertain to, or cover the topic in question.physics is physics and biology is biology. Laughable point about Dawkins. Many people (educated and learned people unlike yourself) HAD infact heard about Dawkins several years before he wrote the god delusion;in particular, for his incredible book, 'the selfish gene'.
@nailedurmum01 My family used to own hospitals, I know a lot of doctors, my boss is medical malpractice ret. and she was Valedictorian at UCR when she earned her Masters in Psychology, but Dennis is a president prize winner scholarship to Notre Dame who worked aerospace for 35 years. Ph.d in Theoretical Physics, he may be the smartest person on the planet, PHYSICS (everything physical), He tears Dawkins apart like a monkey on a cupcake! Check the sales on the books, he's not the first "convert"!
@shizzleman8 fucking hell. So you have become a delusional, religous muppet who thinks he can invoke a sence of intellectual grandeur by garbling off some bullshit about quantum theory and knowing doctors, purely on the basis that you have started bumming a guy named Dennis. Good job, you fail at life.
@nailedurmum01 You're still speculating. "the best way to explain the diversity of life on earth is toe". If it's not just you saying this, then point me where this is a scientific fact? Explanations aren't facts either my little pussy fart. You want to know what an explantion or a theory actually is? No matter what I say or how much evidence I produce you'll still just deny it, that's not being skeptical that's being a denialist. I know you believe you're right, but you can't PROVE IT!
@shizzleman8 Stop misquoting me. Not only is it dishonest but it reveals you have fuck all counter argument and have to resort to blatant strawmen and attempted patronisation in spite of your own scientific ineptitude. I never said 'the best way to explain the diversity of life on earth is toe' at any point. I infact, said that the teo represents our best CURRENT understanding of the diversity of life. The proccess that the theory describes has been proven to exist by a vast wealth of evidence.
@nailedurmum01 How is it ironic and what are you refering too that also evolves with SCIENCE? You're still speculating about EVERYTHING, you've got NO concrete answers to provide but want to criticize MY knowledge. GROW UP!
Try to ANSWER THE QUESTIONS or admit you don't know! How much science is CURRENTLY being thrown out and what's the new science replacing it, and whose is it?
@shizzleman8 Are you retarded? I clearly stated that SCIENCE itself evolves and this is ironic because we are discussing evolution.Science as a whole is in a constant process of refinement, as we encounter new evidence. That's how science works you moron. The teo is currently the most watertight explanation for the diversity of life on earth that we have.
I didn't realise I was discussing TOE with a scientist. As a scientist you have been most gracious to take your time to explain complex issues in such great detail. How could I haver ever known that you were a man of letters? You, science and evolution are in a constant process of refinement, how could I have been SO STUPID not to have known this best explanation for the diversity of life, thanks for all your help, I'll never forget you. Peace.
@nailedurmum01 Do you know what % of "humanity in general" has passed a college level course of Quantum Physics? I'm well aware of the naturalist position on life, the origin of life, toe, and the scientific method. If you want to know my position it's the same as Dennis Polis, Ph.D in Theoretical Physics on those 4 issues. I have a friend who's a Dr. in Math, a prof. at UCR who's been helping me with Quantum Physics for a couple of years, two years b4 I met up with Dennis. Best wishes.
@shizzleman8 If you knew fuck all about fuck all, you wouldn't have to rely on tactics as devious and pathetic, as misquotation,strawman arguments and name dropping. have fun bumming dennis.
@nailedurmum01 Please forgive me if you're already familiar with my position, it's not a naturalist one, my mistake. I'm still learning, and most importantly how not to be such a dick, please forgive me for all my insulting tactics and misquoting of your position.
@shizzleman8 wow, wasn't expecting that; I accept your apology and must confess that any insults on my part were meant in fun. Whilst I can concede that your position has logical basis, my contention is that we have to consider the possibility that human logic is simply not sufficiant to just 'figure out' the universe. In short; proove that the laws of conservation are not themselves maintained by the existance of spongebob squarepants.
@nailedurmum01 Ya' know my friend from across the pond, I watched a program today about teenagers who kill, E!TV, a guesome 2 hours of CHILDREN killing parents and school mates, it gave me a whole new perspective on what I was trying to accomplish. Thanks for those kind words, a glass of wine and the Family Guy sounds just perfect about now, Spongebob's a little b4 my time. My favorite character on Family Guy is the old pedophile, "Let's see which of you boys can drink the most NyQuill p.m." :)
He claimed he's a conservative? He wants to tax the rich to fund a massive army incase of a world war 3. This has to be the most unconservative thing you could possibly think of.
No such thing as darwinism...Darwin was a person that was the one that came up with the theory of evolution. There isn't Einsteinism, there's the theory of relativity. This person is a fucking moron.
So Ben Stein is against Darwinism because it doesn't explain everything including astronomy and thermodynamics? Wow he's even more ignorant than the typical ignorant Creationist!
Craig was fun, but fuck Ben Stein said a bunch of bullshit. The planets are on their orbit because of gravity, what the fuck is the problem with THAT? AND IT'S SOOO FUNNY that he's talking about there's not gonna be a II. Big Depression 2 months before it happened:D
@BLACKPUFFLEXTREME1 I think he does too. Freedom of Speech rocks don't you agree? Did you ever see that game show of his on Comedy Central? I was a big fan of it as was my late grandmother.
The notion that the human machine is an 'accident' (in ANY respect) is an infantile thought. If all you brain trusts, out there would take just a moment to consider any one of the many systems in our bodies, which keep us alive and functioning well (like a clock, from day to day) you might find yourself questioning the arrogant exaggerations of 'scientists' who know which side of their bread is FUNDED. This farce is part of a SPIRITUAL BATTLE that you won't, in the end, want to lose. Take heed.
What an idiot Stein is "planets stay in their orbit because something other than darwinism" - well of course, you moron, Darwin has nothing to do with it! You let crazies like this one roam free in the US? My condolences.
Ben Stein is no moron. And, very many people would like to downplay the fact of God - because, the moment we allow our maker into the picture, we instantly become answerable to Him. (Ain't NOBODY wants THEM burritos.) Good science fully supports the story of creation as is told in Judeo-Christian Scripture. The only PROBLEM with propounding that (let alone just openly believing it) is that you will pay dearly for having the audacity to fly in the face of a FARCE which has the funding to prevail.
"The planets stay in their orbits because of something other than Darwinism"
Did he actually say that? Can he be that dumb? By that comment, Stein shows that he doesn't have even a rudementary understanding of the theory evolution. Indeed he actually calls it "Darwinism" which means nothing.
I mean how do you even respond to that? -Well Ben, you seem to have confused evolution (not Darwinism) with cosmology which is not the same thing. Perhaps a trip to the library is in order Ben?
Ben is such a liar, Nobody has ever lost a job by saying the planets stay in orbit by something other than evolution..
In fact, if you said that evolution keeps planets in orbit, you might be in trouble, and if you slip some creationist garbage in while editing a peer reviewed journal in order to try and sneak it past the peer review process. You will be fired.
LOL... I can't stop laughing at Ben when he says that some people believe that "darwinism" explain gravity... He's just trying to hide the fact that he believed that...
Darwin does not explain the laws of gravity nor does it explain thermodynamics and its not called darwinism its called evolution by natural selection. Its a theory witch has been proven by carbon dating and evidence of current event's etc and so forth. BUT its just baffeling how someone as Stein does dissmis this. He seems so selfconvident but he allready proves to know nothing about the subject. I mean if you wanna sabotage it all because of your believes wait til it gets compticated.
Reading these reviews I am hoping for your sakes that you actually realize that he was being sarcastic. He is saying that all things have to be looked at and that evolution explains natural selection and that is it and it is not the "Holy Grail" of atheism.
What do you mean by that exactly? He obviously has no idea what he is talking about. Why should evolution not be the only option thought in schools? Why not teach oppositions to gravity? Why not teach pixies created the universe?
Then you believe that western and eastern philosophy should not be taught in universities since these are just the opinions of great minds but they are not provable or measurable.
That's philosophy not science. If you are going to teach science, then religion shouldn't be put in the same place. Intelligent Design has been recognized as non-science for many reasons. I think Stein is bad because he spread so much lies.
I am different then other atheists in that I don't believe but not because it isn't possible because to me anything in the universe is possible (look at string theory) I don't believe because this is what I conclude with the information I have and beyond it is only possibility. So I said those that are disgusted with a universal mind certainly have a good line on acquiring all the answers in the universe....No Stein is no fool he justs likes to test the waters.
does ben stein not understand, or is he simply ignorant, that darwinism is a theory about evolution of life from its simplest forms to what we see today? it has NEVER made the claim that its a general theory about everything else in science. gravity, thermodynamics and everything else has its own theory. so fucking ignorant.
Not a single person in the entire world claims that "Darwinism" explains thermodynamics, physics, or cosmology. Why would some idiot make a movie to disprove something that nobody tries to prove? :S What an idiot.
he seems to think people apply darwinism to what you just said, so you could almost count that as one.
and of course the legions of darwinists in this world who apply his teachings to everything in life, including their own (deluded and misguided) morality
i agree, ben. no one should be fired for teaching students that the planets do not stay in orbit because of "darwinism". i also strongly believe that no one should be fired for saying that the tides of the oceans are not caused by peanut butter. one thing has absolutely nothing to do with the other. darwin's theory doesn't address planetary orbits, gravity, or thermodynamics. no one worth listening to ever claimed that it does.
Wow Ben, no one EVER claimed Darwin explains everything. Evolution shouldnt explain the laws of thermodynamics, physics, or planets staying in orbit (cosmology). I've never heard anyone who knows half a shit about science ever claim evolutionary theory accounts for all that.
People actually look a little in this movie, look at the reviews. You accuses evolution as being the cause of the Holocaust, has not even a remote understanding of science yet claims it leads to killing people
Wow, I just love how everyone jumps to the conclusion that Ben Stein is disrespecting Darwin and saying that he tried to explain gravity and the meaning of life. No more than 5 seconds later, Ben says he knows Darwin never tried to explain those things. He's just trying to give those ignorant people who do believe that to be true the fact that Darwin only tries to explain the changes in species. He's Giving Darwin FUCKING CREDIT!! So why don't you people actually watch the whole video next time.
Ben Stein's mouth fused with his anal sphincter long ago. That and the fact that he has permenant diahrea is the reason why he constantly spews projective shite into the faces of everyone he speaks to. Ben. You know nothing about Science, nothing about the Theory and Law of Gravity, nothing about the Theory of Evolution, NOTHING AT ALL about Darwin whom was a great, great and kind man. Please, please gtfo my planet -- you only seek to ruin it for the rest of us with your sad, idiotic friends.
Have you ever watched his movie "Expelled"? If you have, you musy admit that there are serious problems with the theory of evolution. For one thing, it doesn't explain how life began.
@bucnasty14 evolution is anti certain religions such as most of the christian bibles and islam. The only God that someone can believe in if they support Evolution, is your own made up God. The christian based Jesus and its bible is not evolution friendly. Miracles from an upper hand in the sky do not happen in evolution. The bible is full of anti evolution propaganda, and so is Islam Koran.
@bucnasty14 what part of God do you see in a cheetah torturing and killing an animal, often eating it while it is still alive from the rear end first? there are pictures on the internet. If this is God guided, why do so many people say God doesn't actually play a role in the process because he created free will and therefore free will pretty much means the cheetah is free to evolve and fuck/rape the way it wants? Which directly affects evolution and offspring. Hypocrisy indeed!
@bucnasty14 Exactly. I absolutely abhor the concept that evolution and atheism are exclusive to one another, and if one accepts evolution that automatically implies the acceptance of atheism.
darwin's followers think evolution explains the laws of physics????? hahahahhahhahahhahahhahahhhahahahahahahahaah. i think he really did take a joint this guy lol
Just shoot Ben Stein in the face. I never thought I would solicit such a thing, but lets gather up all creationists and give them all a "raptuture" by shooting them in the face. Shoot a Creationist in The Face.
The most basic law in the universe is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This states that as time goes by, entropy in an environment will increase. Evolution argues against a law that is accepted EVERYWHERE BY EVERYONE. Evolution says that we started out simple, and over time became more complex. That just isnt possible: unless there is a giant outside source of energy supplying the Earth with huge amounts of energy. If there were such a source, scientists would know about it. Am I right?
That Ben Stein thinks a single credible scientist might claim Darwinism explains gravity or thermodynamics would be hilarious if it were not so depressing.
It just demonstrates that he is completely ignorant about science.
all those that choose not to believe god created everything, will be in for a shock...lol... if you want to believe in evolution, that is your problem.
Lol, evolution is a fact. No faith and wishful thinking required. (Go study something, don't be ignorant). The fact evolution doesn't explain everything, doesn't mean its not a fact. (gravity etc. is no *yet* within science grasp, that doesn't mean it will never be. Don't forget science also brought us to the moon. No reason to fill every gap science hasn't *yet* explained with God)
@DinkyDoeDoe evolution is not a fact, it is a theory which is better than a fact. Facts are small little things like "the earth is flat" which is true to an extent if you measure it from one place to another without a fine enough instrument. Theories are more complete than facts. Facts are a dime a dozen. watch some Eugenie Scott vids for more information. The fact that things fall is a FACT but gravity is a theory.
Where do Creationists get off with their "Darwinism" conspiracy? Darwinism exists only in the minds of people like Ben Stein. Evolution explains speciation, abiogenesis explains the origin of life, physics explains how the planets orbits a star! Was he sleeping through middle grade science?
aye im fed up tryin to explain to creationists that evolution has nothin to do with the big bang theory, abiogenisus, formation of planets or nethin, they dont seem to grasp this
I am totally fine with ceationists getting fired from scientific jobs, even though Ben Stein's film has been proven to be full of lies and mistruths. It's like a medical doctor getting fired for thinking that using leeches to cure cancer is reasonable. Primitive.

I am sat smoking a reef right now but I understand the theory of evolution and don't bemoan it for not relating to gravity. he really thinks he's cool and its vomit inducing. Grade A imbecile

@nailedurmum01 people, on here, all the time, common people on streets or such who believe just because they dont believe in god they're smarter. He was making a counter example unrelated to darwinism to imply a higher power could have influenced the universe and perhaps in extent, evolution
Ether165 9 months ago
@Ether165 He exclaims that the theory of evolution ''doesn't explain thermodynamics'' as if this is some kind of weakness ; Why the hell would it? The theory of thermodynamics explains thermodynamics and the theory of evolution explains evolution. Yes, a higher power COULD have influenced the universe, but until we have any proof or logical basis to think so, it is rather pointless to postulate the notion. btw 'darwinism' is not even a real word, it is only employed by creationists

@Ether165 My original point is the most pertinent; when the hell has ANY scientist, EVER implied that the theory of evolution should explain gravity, thermodynamics, the origin of life and the universe, or anything other than what it sets out to describe; ie the diversity of life on earth?
nailedurmum01 8 months ago
@nailedurmum01 The existence of life on earth and it's diversity is directly related to these "forces". Strong interaction is one of four fundamental interactions of nature, gravitation being another one. There is no physical model (natural explanation) of what existed before the big bang because of a lack of a testable theory of quantum gravity. The theory of evolution as you understand it DOESN'T explain much of anything! Evolution has targets, and once achieved, no more evolution! dfpolis #17

@shizzleman8 What a bullshit post! So we should scrap the scientific method? Only when we have an utterly comprehensive understanding of the entire history and nature of the universe can we understand it's components? Bollocks. The theory of evolution pertains to the diversity of life and only that, it has nothing to do with physics, whether newtonian or quantum. The theory of evolution is simply our best model for describing the natural process of evolution which has been prooven to exist.

@nailedurmum01 YES! The scientific method is only a way to understand objects in reality, but observation changes reality! Bullocks?

The most basic law in the universe is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This states that as time goes by, entropy in an environment will increase.

That just isnt possible: unless there is a giant outside source of energy supplying the Earth with huge amounts of energy. If there were such a source, scientists would know about it. Am I right?

Lol, evolution is a fact. No faith and wishful thinking required. (Go study something, don't be ignorant). The fact evolution doesn't explain everything, doesn't mean its not a fact. (gravity etc. is no *yet* within science grasp, that doesn't mean it will never be. Don't forget science also brought us to the moon. No reason to fill every gap science hasn't *yet* explained with God)

Especially since God is a self-contradictory hypothesis -- the lowest probability an unknown can ever have.

@DinkyDoeDoe evolution is not a fact, it is a theory which is better than a fact. Facts are small little things like "the earth is flat" which is true to an extent if you measure it from one place to another without a fine enough instrument. Theories are more complete than facts. Facts are a dime a dozen. watch some Eugenie Scott vids for more information. The fact that things fall is a FACT but gravity is a theory.

@HugNow Yeah, that's true. However did you really scroll all these pages down to correct somone on a semantical issue?

Where do Creationists get off with their "Darwinism" conspiracy? Darwinism exists only in the minds of people like Ben Stein. Evolution explains speciation, abiogenesis explains the origin of life, physics explains how the planets orbits a star! Was he sleeping through middle grade science?

aye im fed up tryin to explain to creationists that evolution has nothin to do with the big bang theory, abiogenisus, formation of planets or nethin, they dont seem to grasp this

"Darwinism doesn't explain gravity"
no it doesn't, but it's not trying to Stein, you stupid idiot
the road map in the back of my car doesn't explain gravity, but it's still gets me to the right place
