→Expelled interviews Dawkins
If there is a question he objected to (so much that he actually refused to continue any further with the interview), I'm sure our readers would be interested. What was the question? Did it appear in the film? What was Dawkins's objection to it being asked? --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 11:03, 1 May 2008 (EDT)

:Dawkins did not 'object to it being asked'. As I actually said in the very bit you have quoted above, the question revealed the fact he had been misled and lied to about who was interviewing him and for what reason, and it was this that he objected to. I did actually provide a link that gave a detailed account of the events, plus a very thorough and detailed answer to the question which supposedly 'stumped' him on the same page you lifted that quote from. I also provided my own very quick and dirty answer to the same question.
:As for your assertion about Expelled, quite frankly, the film is actually a piece of utter nonsense that seems to make several huge mistakes, the main one being that of thinking that, if you question an established theory, and get laughed at because of the fact you have either no or severely flawed evidence to back your questioning up, and things happen like universities distancing themselves from your claims, or telling you not to teach it to students as fact, that is 'science being a big bully', as you put it. It's not - it's actually called 'science expecting you to do science'. [[User:Urushnor|Urushnor]] 08:08, 6 May 2008 (EDT)
