Flock of Dodos

The flock of dodos movie discussed the ways the scientific community and the intelligent design community portrayed their sides of the issue.

Intelligent designers where definitely the winner when it came to portraying their side of the issue the best. They didn't use scientific jargon or big words and they developed catch phrases with a PR firm to help catch the public's attention. Not simplifying an explanation can cause confusion for the general public and they will lose interest very quick and looking for something that is simpler to understand.

The evolutionist handled the discussion in a complete opposite manner from the intelligent designers. They continued to use scientific jargon instead of simplifying their explanations and over all just didn't seem to care to discuss the issue. During one debate all they sent was lawyer to answer questions for their side, were the intelligent designers had scientists there to debate. This just showed the evolutionists unwillingness to get their ideas of evolution out to the public.

The evolutionist need to be willing to discuss their side of issue and discuss it on terms that the public can use if they want to be taken more seriously and maybe even hire a PR firm to help get the message across to the public easier.
