Nature's Destiny: How the Laws of Biology Reveal Purpose in the Universe
Evolution: A Theory In Crisis

Here, at Telic Thoughts (posted June 17, 2011) is an interview (vid) with University of Otago biochemist Michael Denton. Not an ID guy exactly, he wrote Evolution: A theory in crisis (1986) and Nature’s Destiny (2002), providing a comprehensive look at evolution without Darwinism. A floodlight at last.

Many people first became interested in the fundamental question – Darwinism and “science” vs. evidence and real science – from reading Denton – including Phillip Johnson, who first brought the ID guys together to ask the key question … and so now? And so here we are now.

It’s interesting that when Denton’s books came out, all reviewers supposed that it was their job to trash them, so the older official Amazon reviews from happy, confident, unquestioning Darwin serfs make interesting reading in the light of subsequent events.

Here is a print interview.
