How did life begin? It's a question no scientist has ever thought about. What are scientists hiding? And do they have what it takes to win $5000 of Ben Stein's money? I might be mixing some things up. In any case, this week we watched Stein's 2008 propaganda-fest, which boldly defends the right of scientists everywhere to advocate for a vaguely defined theory without even bothering to tell us what it actually consists of. That's right, it's the Intelligent Design movement, baby! It's not religion, but also it represents religion's last stand against communism, or Nazis. Those are basically the same thing I guess.
