Image of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

Thanks to the magic of Netflix On Demand, @squorch and I took an evening to sync up our computers and watch Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. I will attempt to summarize the film's message:

Darwinists hate Intelligent Design because they hate Christians. This means that Christians make the best scientists, but science makes people atheists, so scientists are atheists, which is why Christians hide the fact that they're not atheists when doing science, except for the liberal Christians, who are Hitler and hate Jewish babies. This is how we know Intelligent Design has nothing to do with religion.

Ronald Reagan loved Freedom.

The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile.

To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else.

— Teddy Roosevelt
