Davidson was posting it everywhere he thought it might be seen. That just happened to be the first place I saw it. It comes up on a regular google web search – I didn’t search google groups.

I did not realize PZ still bothered with USENET. Don’t you think it is a little easier for PZ to deny reading USENET articles than his own blog’s comments?

Dave @ 44, that is some damning evidence for those who still claim a RSVP system was not in place. The date reference is of particular importance. I’m going to have use this one in my response to another poster who keeps insisting that these screenings were offered to the general public.

MacNeill:
“As for discussing the actual content of the film, that will be difficult for me, as no screenings of the film are planned for central New York as far as I can tell.”

So this answers the question I posed to you @ 16, where I asked you if you had seen any of the screenings. So therefore, Mr.MacNeill, I think you are not in the position to confidently state what you wrote @ 13:

“As far as I know, the people in line didn’t have to register at the door.”

There is no way you can claim this without having been to any of the screenings.

Allen, you come across as a kind and respectable fellow and it is just a pity to have to see someone like you defend people that are not in league with your candor and goodwill and then to needlessly suffer the consequence of fiery, but rightful criticisms.

Here is an interesting comment in response to a March 11th announcement of the Chicago private screening including the private screening RSVP address:

Why are you sharing this secret RSVP site with the general public? Wasn’t it given to you in utmost confidence? What would happen if people who were not wholly in sycophantic agreement with the film’s message were to get hold of it?

Yes, I read those but I found the Glen Davidson smoking gun myself by simply googling the private URL and discovering Glen Davidson on talk.origins describing how to get in without an invitation then advising that the non-disclosure agreement could be violated without getting caught by anonymous web posting. Actually advising people to commit a crime… hmmmm.

*Sorry, I know Dawkins was not expelled as my post made it sound.

In my humble opinion they should have just let Myers and Dawkins watch it. Sure they are belligerent, but so what, don’t we have the moral high ground here? Why resort to their tactics. Did the producers have a right to “expel” them? Sure, but why not just let them watch it?

As for Dr.Allen, your comments are appreciated, and helpful. The discourse has proved enlightening to myself at least, a devout theist and mostly ID’er. To the other faithful ID’ers keep up the good work and don’t stoop to the level of the Myers and Dawkins of the world.
