Caroline Crocker, on National Examiner.com, opines that our embracing of divergent peoples and viewpoints marks us as unique and we are rightly proud of being broad-minded, a "melting pot," welcoming people of different nationalities, cultures and races. This has enabled us to be world leaders in innovative ideas, in marked contrast to what is produced by totalitarian regimes where citizens are only allowed to think one way.
A study published in Forum (2005) by Lichter, Rothman, and Nevitte reported that 72 percent of university faculty are liberal (87 percent in elite universities). That this is reflected in the teaching is easily seen in the prolific displays of left-wing propaganda displayed on campuses.
In the Montreal Gazette, Bill Brownstein gives a review typical of what has been seen across Canada after the opening of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. Those in the know where not expecting the documentary to be a blockbuster in Canada, and there probably have been few kind words in the press either (I have not come across any).
While Brownstein harps on the Nazi analogy, he mentions nothing about Dawkins' claim that he believes in intelligent design...just as long as the intelligence is from a far away place in the cosmos that evolved through random chance and natural selection.

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.
