[EndCredulity]

The low bot-troll ratings don't matter in this case. They might be effective if this were a webcam of some teenager squirting milk out of his nose and imparting his wisdom on the subject.

But this is Mathis in his own words, getting unequivocally de-pantsed for all to hear. That trumps however many Creationist 1-stars are given.

Exactly, endcredulity. The only thing those trolls achieve is to take away all doubt as to what kind of people we're dealing with here.

"thank for your posting this!! this totally makes this movie seem even more like propaganda"

You're very welcome, and I agree, hearing Mathis talk makes it very clear that these people have no idea what they're talking about and are just spreading fnord.

Expelled, a 97 minute movie that instead of attempting to fully explain what ID is and what it's scientific method is decides instead to use intellectually dishonest editing, half truths, and outright deceit to project a supposed conspiracy and merely whines.

Did any Creationist, after viewing this film, fully understand what ID is and how it's scientifically examined or interpreted ? I sure didn't.

If not, ask yourself why that is. Here was the chance to make the case, nobody bothered.

Thank you, deBeuk, for sharing this clips.. Good work!

[interstitialofficial]

It seems that mostly it's a case of people just plain not liking scientists or anyone who could be called a savant. And some people who are a part of intelligentsia can be the dumbest guy in the room which, for a few people, can be an ego issue.

People twist the truth to get what they want. sad. Thanks for posting this audio.  I know for sure I wouldn't pay money to see this movie.

[max2right]

expelled is just another christian lie. so typical.

"Oh yeah, that seems pretty obvious. Good thing I have nothing against my idiocy being publicly showcased on the internet"

Idiocy is claiming the earth is 6000 years old, or saying "gosh, that sure is complex, that means goddidit". You just forgot to check a video description box ;)
