Part of a series of videos exposing the funny stupidity of creationists and why they deserve to be laughed at. In each case the creationist statements are shown to be outrageously stupid by even the most rudimentary knowledge of science.


In this episode Ben Stein is taken to task over his inability to distinguish science from free speech. Stein claims that those who question evolution are discriminated against, whereas in reality this 'discrimination' is merely people getting held accountable for demonstrating their pathetic grasp of both the scientific method and scientific literature.

In simple parody terms it would be like a medic claiming that 'I don't believe in sterilizing medical instruments, and if you say otherwise you are discriminating against me, and censoring my free speech.'

The scientific literature is an open arena. Anyone who can sustain their claim with research and reason will get a fair hearing.

Creationists think the only reason they cannot compete in this arena is due to prejudice, when in reality it is merely the fact that they don't do ANY research, let alone anything worthy of being published.

Why does Ben Stein always sound like he is sucking a boiled sweet when he speaks? Maybe be it's eggs he's sucking....

"The examples you make about the wall lizard, bacteria strains, peppered moths ect. are all examples of micro-evolution or speciation which fits well with the creation framework."

Actually, they don't fit in quite as well. The difference is that these things are all expected outcomes if the theory of evolution is true. However, these are not expected outcomes from creationism. They were simply added in after they became undeniable.

I like Ethel Aardvark's happy dance. But it couldn't have happened that way - sunglasses didn't exist.
