Ben Stein is many things: an actor, a comedian, a game show host and an economist. The one thing he is not is "an ignorant fool". I have no idea what his personal beliefs are, but I doubt that he made this stupid film out of a deep personal need to spread the ID gospel. It was probably out of his deep need to upgrade his Malibu beach house. He's an actor folks!! He reads lines and collects large checks. btw ad hominem attacks are not exactly in the grand tradition of scientific inquiry. OK, folks, ease up.

It brings to my mind the [subliminal] feeling that you should not come and see the movie if you pretend to use your intelligence. Only the dumb are supposed (allowed) to see the film.

Thank you, Mr. Shermer for this tidbit, I feel it may make my next debate on the subject somewhat more fruitful.
