The critical reviews of the movie Expelled are almost more instructive than the movie itself in demonstrating the absurd lengths to which champions of Darwinism will go to silence, discredit and destroy those who challenge their cherished theory. Perhaps the most stellar example is John Derbyshire's recent review in which he accuses Expelled of being creationist porn that includes dishonest interviews with scientists, and uses stolen video and music clips. Those are pretty heavy charges. Especially for a man who admits he hasn't even seen the film!
Some of Derbyshire's cheap shots are aimed at David Berlinski, who not only has seen the film, but is featured in it. Berlinski is not about to take these charges lying down and delivers Derbyshire the tongue lashing he deserves while setting the record straight in this National Review Online commentary: The Dang Thing: John Derbyshire and the movie he hasn't seen.

Evolution has become a favorite topic of the news media recently, but for some reason, they never seem to get the story straight. The staff at Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture started this Blog to set the record straight and make sure you knew "the rest of the story".
A blogger from New England offers his intelligent reasoning.
We are a group of individuals, coming from diverse backgrounds and not speaking for any organization, who have found common ground around teleological concepts, including intelligent design. We think these concepts have real potential to generate insights about our reality that are being drowned out by political advocacy from both sides. We hope this blog will provide a small voice that helps rectify this situation.
