I encourage you to read this deep analysis of the movie's claims and evidence:  http://www.counterbalance.org/expelled/index-frame.html

FYI, the writer is Christian and used to be a high level Intelligent Design advocate, but has since abandoned it.  The part that seems most relevant to what you were talking about is his examination of the claims of academic censure and blackballing of people who questioned evolution or proposed intelligent design.  He assessed one case as being totally without merit; in another case any repercussions were minor at worst and more like not being invited to office parties; and in the third case he reckoned that the guy's application for tenure might indeed have been affected, but there were also other factors. 

Oh yes, of course I know about the  rebuttals and refutations EXPELLED got. That was a powerful documentary, if it went unchallenged it could change the mind of many people, specialy youngsters seduced by their evolutionist teachers.

Every single good thing will be refuted by the evil it denounces. And every single evil thing will be opposed by a little source of good. 

Does not matter, as long as the message reaches a few ears still capable of hearing.

I didn't ask if you were aware that scientists had rebutted Expelled's claims.  I asked you to read this specific analysis which was written from a sympathetic perspective.  Have you read it? 

Or do you not even care if the movie is accurate as long as it gets someone to agree with you?
