The uncut interviews

After posting the FSM Expelled video, it was obvious to some (and hopefully all) that several quotes were taken out of context, and certain views were shown in a biased way.

This was all intentional!  The point of the video was satire, and the target was Ben Stein and the Discovery Institute‘s upcoming Expelled trailer.  They take clips from leading”darwinists” and show nice long interviews from IDers.  In the spirit of satire I chose to do the same, giving pro-FSMers a long speech and quote-mining the “darwinistic” supporters.

However, I choose to do one more thing to poke at Expelled – I’ve now released all the interviews to YouTube completely UNCUT!  Let’s see the Discover Institute’s full interviews online (with the false premises exposed).

So here they are (in order of most to least misrepresentation):

Dr. Denis Lamoureux

Dr. Warren Gallin and Dr. Brad Magor

Dr. Zbigniew Gortel

Dr. Michael Caldwell 

False Idols

(Side note: this is my 100th post here!)

Fundamental evangelical Christians in the US are at it again – now they’re calling the I-35 a sacred highway as prophesied in the Bible.

If that video made your head hurt (it should come with a disclaimer), here’s a redeeming video of Kathy Griffin’s comedy about her Emmy acceptance speech where she said “Suck it Jesus.”

Evolving Clocks

“Evolution isn’t true because clocks never spontaneously evolve,” well if you make them alive and breed them in a computer simulation you can have clocks form from a pile of gears.
