Expelled

The other night I watched a very interesting documentary called "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed." The film hosted by Ben Stein questions evolution and its theories. I totally agree with Ben Stein that we are losing our freedom of speech because we who believe in creationism are consider the bad guys. There were a few things that confused me. If we have freedom of speech, then why can't we question evolution and why was it OK for Charles Darwin to question creationism but as I said can't question evolution? Also the other confusing part is Richard Dawkins who is an atheist and believes in evolution stated at the end of the documentary that we could have been made by a higher power, but that higher power is not God. What? Doesn't Richard Dawkins know that atheists don't believe in God, any god, or higher power!!!! I think Richard Dawkins may be a little confused.

Another question I have, if we evolved from monkeys, then why are there still monkeys around today??? That part didn't come from the movie, I've just heard other people say it. But now I'm wondering about it.
