Has anyone seen it, or is anyone going to? It deals with expelling the myth of evolution from schools. I watched the previews at GetEXPELLED.com - a resource website for EXPELLED the movie - in theaters 2008. and I'm going to try to see it. It was in the top 10 at the box office last weekend. Looks interesting.

Hmmm....I hadn't even heard of it. Let us know what you think when you see it.

I read an article on it in yesterday's paper. They slammed the movie. It said that never in the movie did they actually explain what Intelligent Design is, or why it should be taught in schools, and they made all these false correlations between Darwinism and Nazi Germany. I just looked up the online version of my paper but it looks like they didn't put that article online, just in the print version. I'd never heard of it until yesterday.

Looks interesting. I hadn't heard of it either.

On a side note Ben Stein has a house in our area!

We are going to see it Thursday. I have talked with several people who went to see it and they all call it a "must see". I'll let you know...

Man, I am so out of the loop! I didn't even know there was Expelled much less Expelled Exposed! But thanks for adding the link.
