So, I always knew Ben Stein was a conservative. I knew he was an economic conservative. After all, we was a speech writer for Dick Nixon, probably the crookedest mofo this side of Karl Rove, but I never knew he was social fundamentalist conservative.
You know, like the bigots who think George Bush does a good job and is a good person. The one's that think homosexuals are sinners and the one's who think that Jesus buried the dinosaurs.*
Well, he's either just looking for a paycheck, or he's playing the Left Behind video Game with Kirk Cameron because he's coming out with a movie to prove that once and for all science is out to destroy God. He's got a movie coming out where he travels around and speaks about creationism LIKE IT'S A LEGITIMATE SCIENCE! It's called Expelled, and he's being touted as a rebel. I don't know about you, but I tend to agree. The first thing I think about when I see Ben Stein's name is: REBEL. Here's a look at the website.

This is a subject that rattles me like no other. Fundies feel that they're being ostracized for their religious beliefs, but that's not the case at all. What's really happening is that we are making fun of you for your lack of understanding the scientific method, and we don't want to pass your ignorance on to our children. I can go on and on about this subject, but chances are, you've already got your belief system in your head and you're like President Bush--with me or against me.
*I know it doesn't say that Jesus buried the dinosaurs ANYWHERE in the Bible. I was just joking with you all. I know that it was Moses that buried them.
