i watch this movie a couple of year ago with an large audience of mixed partisan from both side . there be also a discussion panel afterward that include a number of scholar and critic and politician . i think olson show everyone a they really be represent the scientist be a bit supercilious but the fundamentalist be absolutely idiotic . the documentary have no obligation to make the latter seem anything other than the scientific illiterate and theocrats that they truly be . i wish the film have also show the venality and pervasive corruption of the bible thumpers reveal in their mismanagement of and campaign for the kansa state board of education and but that complexity would have be hard to explain and would have take much longer . on the panel above and hold in kansas city and a local reactionary radio host participate on the intelligent ( sic ) design side . after a number of outrageous and preposterous statement and he get progressively more contentious and finally loudly contend that all the scientific advance since the birth of christ be a product of western christian civilization . i be sure that and for instance and dozen of jewish nobelist in the hard science would have be stun by this calumny and but i think it reveal the true color of these fundamentalist . take to task and the ideologue even claim that gallileo have not actually be persecute by religious zealot and the vatican . it should be mention that this be a truly amusing documentary in many way . it capture some lead scientist in their most casual and unguarded and perhaps slightly inebriated moment . it show the i. d. er for the bumpkin they be and with ludicrous statement against interest right from their own mouth . audience even get to identify with olson mom and muffy moose and who be an endearingly hilarious example of a fence sitter and and be educate about the peculiar digestive process of rabbit ( i will avoid a spoiler here and but just that part make the movie worth attend ) . i have to give it two oppose thumb up .
