Intelligent Design the Future

We often say that Darwinists are reluctant to debate advocates of intelligent design, but here are two who deserve a tip of the hat. Keith Pannell is a chemist at the University of Texas at El Paso who hosts a program, Science Studio, on the NPR station there. He invited Stephen Meyer on to talk about the science of ID, pegged to the Dover anniversary. Clearly Pannell is an ID critic so he gets kudos for being willing to have a civil and informative conversation. Perhaps feeling insecure about facing the author of Darwin's Doubt by himself, Dr. Pannell invited a biologist colleague, Ricardo Bernal, to serve as "co-host." So it was two against one, but no worries. Meyer is, as always, superb, and the discussion sounds like it was an education for the two Texas scientists. Listen and enjoy.

On this episode of ID the Future, hear a segment of a recent “Science and Human Origins” conference that took place in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Listen in as Dr. John West discusses the social implications of Darwinism and the impact of Darwin’s theory on our culture’s understanding of human beings.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin interviews biologist Ann Gauger, who discusses her research paper with Doug Axe, recently published in BIO-Complexity. Listen in as Dr. Gauger shares how she tested the changes necessary to evolve enzymes by a Darwinian mechanism.

On this episode of ID the Future, Sarah Chaffee examines what it looks like to teach the controversy over Darwinian evolution, explaining why students should learn more, not less, on the topic. Listen in as she looks at a lesson plan overview for a unit on neo-Darwinisim, and highlights 3 points of scientific controversy that teachers can discuss.

On this episode of ID the Future hear part 2 of Casey Luskin's talk on the latest findings in microbiology and how they impact the debate over intelligent design and Darwinian evolution (find part 1 of his talk here). Casey discusses the current information age of biology, and how only intelligent design can make sense of the latest discoveries.

On this episode of ID the Future, Todd Butterfield interviews Ann Gauger about her observations on Darwin Day 2016, which she calls "an occasion to reflect on other people's thoughts about unintelligent design." Listen in as Dr. Gauger discusses her recent article on the subject that responds to the arguments of Darwin's more aggressive followers.

On this episode of ID the Future, hear the first part of a talk that Casey Luskin recently gave on the latest findings in molecular biology. Luskin discusses the non-coding DNA that control a huge of the cellular processes, and what we still don't know about the genome. Listen in!

On this episode of ID the Future, hear part 3 of a lecture given by David Snoke at a conference sponsored by the Christian Scientific Society. In this segment, Dr. Snoke, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Pittsburg, discusses the “Maxwell’s demon” thought experiment and evaluations the odds of an information processing system occurring spontaneously.

On this episode of ID the Future, hear part 2 of a lecture given by David Snoke at a conference sponsored by the Christian Scientific Society. In this segment, Dr. Snoke, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Pittsburg, discusses the relationship between information and entropy.

On this episode of ID the Future, hear a short excerpt of the book Billions of Missing Links that examines the extraordinary design of the cockroach, and how nearly everything about it defies the theory of evolution.
