Well, let's switch gears now.
You were starring in a motion picture called Expelled, and you traipsed all over
the world in search of the answer.
Is this something in your heart?
I mean, you weren't just an actor in this movie.
Oh, no, no, no.
It's very much in my heart.
I've always questioned Darwinism, because Darwinism leads to social
Darwinism, the belief that some races are superior to other races, and that the
superior races have it as their moral duty to eliminate the lesser races.
And that means my fellow Jews, and, of course, African Americans,
Indians, Aborigines.
Just kill them.
They're worthless.
The only people who count are the master race, like the Germans or the Danes.
And there could have been no Holocaust without Darwinism.
That's my view.
So I've always had my suspicions about Darwinism.
But Darwinism explains so little.
It doesn't explain how life began.
It doesn't explain how gravity works to keep the planets in their orbits.
It doesn't explain how thermodynamics works.
It doesn't explain how physics or the laws of motion work.
And, you know, I saw that scientist you had up on the TV before I came on who said
it's been tested and retested.
No one has ever observed the evolution of a single mammalian species.
They've observed evolution within species.
But a new species, no one's ever been able to observe that or find fossil record of
it.
Well, why do they try to suppress it?
And that was the theme of your movie, Expelled, that this one man was expelled
from a teaching position.
Oh, more than one.
Dozens, dozens and dozens have been expelled or lost their grants or been
humiliated for even mentioning the possibility that there could be an
intelligent designer in the universe who created the universe, who created the
heavens and the earth.
And I think people want to suppress the idea of an intelligent designer,
whom I call the intelligent designer God, because they think if there's a God,
I'm going to be held morally accountable.
If there's no God, if it all happens by accident, random mutation and natural
selection, I'm not responsible.
I'm just a creature of my genes.
But if there's a God, I'm morally responsible.
I'm in deep trouble here.
But this is pervasive in what that movie showed, pervasive right across the
academic.
Oh, very pervasive.
If you were to stand up, if you were, say, an assistant professor at Harvard and
you stood up and said, you know, we have no evidence for how life began,
a perfectly reasonable hypothesis is that there is an intelligent designer who
always was and always will be and he created life, you would be out of there on
your ear so fast it would be insane.
If you were on a Ford Foundation grant and you said, we don't know how the planets
stay in their orbits, we don't know how light beams began, we don't know how
energy began, we don't know how matter began, a perfectly reasonable hypothesis
is there's an intelligent designer, you'd lose your grant like that.
Well, why?
They said, well, we see that scientists created some test tubes and they put some
amino acids and they played electricity on it, and therefore we had some primitive
cells.
But that had a...
They didn't get it.
They had no life at all.
Darwin never hypothesized about how life began.
And he said, maybe, possibly there are organic elements and lightning struck
them.
That was the only thing he ever said, and that was in a letter to someone.
But people have run electricity through every kind of inorganic compound you can
mention, and they never get life from it.
Never, ever, ever.
So that doesn't work.
Life didn't come from a mud puddle.
Life came, it seems fairly clear to me, from an intelligent designer.
But I'm willing to agree, I could be wrong.
I'm often wrong.
I'm very often wrong.
But give us free speech.
Give us free speech.
Don't fire us because we question a doctrine that doesn't even mention it.
I mean, Darwin didn't mention astronomy, rather.
Darwin didn't mention physics.
Why can't we question whether Darwinism accounts for those things, too?
You can't be a true scientist unless you do.
You have to try to disprove your own theory if you're a real scientist.
Yeah.
Well, I hope this movie takes hold.
You did a great job.
Is it available in movies now?
It's going to be out on 1,000 screens April 18th.
And the movie is called...
It's called Expelled, No Intelligence Allowed.
Expelled, No Intelligence Allowed.
That says it all.
Man, thank you so much for being here.
Thank you so much.
