Named “Uncommon Dissent Forum: Scientists Who Find Darwinism Unconvincing,” the three-day event Aug. 4 through Aug. 6 at the Palmetto Expo Center is to consist of a panel of nine individuals, six of them scientists, all of them prominent in the cultural debate raging about the origins of life. He offers a $30 discount to the $145 registration fee to students and teachers. Supported by the Discovery Institute, he plans up to 15 similar conferences around the nation over the next five years if the Greenville event draws enough interest. Mr. Young’s desire to set up the forum was kindled last November after reading several articles on the topic and a book with a similar title edited by philosopher William Dembski. MORE
