Why Neo-Darwinism Can’t Take the Credit for Design of Life
About this episode
The episode discusses the limitations of neo-Darwinism in explaining the design of life, featuring insights from molecular biologists.
If life is built on complex molecular machines and information that is both complex AND specified, can unguided evolution actually get the credit? On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid concludes a two-part conversation with molecular biologist Dr. Douglas Axe and biochemist Dr. Michael Behe, two experts featured in the new movie The Story of Everything. Over two episodes Axe and Behe are discussing their participation in the movie and unpacking some of the insights they share in it. And you'll enjoy more exclusive clips from the movie too! Source
