Intelligent Design foes no match for Stein in 'Expelled'

In the Baptist Press, Michael Foust writes on an interview with Ben Stein, and the upcoming documentary film "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed".

The film opens April 18, and Stein believes he's involved in one of the leading cultural and political battles of his life: the fight for academic freedom against an establishment that teaches Darwinian evolution as fact. Intelligent Design (ID) - the belief that certain aspects of the world are so complex that they must have been created by an intelligent being, instead of by a random process - deserves a place at the academic table, he says.

"I think I'm engaged in a struggle that's very much uphill in which the establishment is very much against me," he said in a recent telephone conference call with reporters. "But I'm a rebel to my core ... and happy to be in an uphill struggle, as long as the cause is right."
