OK, well, jeez…
1. there is no debate about Intelligent Design in academia BECAUSE Intelligent Design has yet to say anything useable. Now, I’m not saying that there aren’t legitimate criticisms of modern evolutionary theory, but when all you bring to the table is “Here’s a problem that hasn’t been resolved, therefor there’s something magic happening”, you aren’t invited much.
When ID can say ANYTHING in a scientific context, I’m sure talk will start.

2. Why do people shy away from God as the source of life on Earth, and choose to go with theories that seem unlikely in many ways? Because Occams Razor guides them. Look, we know physical life exists (that would be us). So the idea of another physical life-form ’seeding’ earth is MUCH more likely than a supernatural being which we have no proof of (except via bootstrap).

3. Finally, regarding the horrible PC Liberalism and it’s stranglehold over the media: Did you watch the Presidential debates? Have you noticed how religion keeps coming up time and time again? Have you noticed that the only group more disliked than atheists are Scientologists? If the PC Media Overlords are pro-atheist, then they are doing a LOUSY job at it.

(btw, if you really feel like bringing up Hitler, you’d better welcome comments about the Inquisition and Crusades and Jihadis and so forth. And you just might want to remember the internet law that states that any discussion pretty much ends the moment you compare the other side to Hitler/Nazis. Stein, as a jew, should be ashamed of himself.)

Ben Stein Vs. Sputtering Atheists – Yahoo! News

Evolution is another one of those one-sided debates. We know the concept of Intelligent Design is stifled in academic circles. An entire documentary to state the obvious? You can see my reluctance to view it.

It’s understood that God had nothing to do with the origins of life on
Earth. What, then, is the alternate explanation? Stein asks these
experts, and their very serious answers are priceless. One theorizes
that life began somehow on the backs of crystals. Another states
electric sparks from a lightning storm created organic matter (out of
nothing). Another declares that life was brought to Earth by aliens.
Anything but God.
