"Only A Theory"

[Bikewer]

Nice NPR Science Friday segment with Dr. Kenneth Miller:

(streaming audio)

Good discussion of the new tack of the ID guys, the move to "question the weak points" of evolutionary theory. Of course, they don't want to question the "weak points" of chemistry or gravity....
Nice discussion; Miller is articulate and well informed. One of the callers was railing about science "refusing to discuss" the complexity of proteins or the lack of "intermediate" fossil forms.
Miller nicely riposted with very clear examples and referenced several such fossils that have been recently discovered.
A good segment.

Oh, gees - and the goof is from Colorado, too. *sigh* However, I'm impressed to know that Miller is from CU - yeah!

But I'm just happy as hell the Grand Junction gentleman (sorry about "goof" - sorta) was on. Miller answered his objections in a way that was masterful.

Miller is perhaps one of the most articulate people on the evolution side of he argument, and he demonstrated that par excellance in the Dover trial. For anyone who has the time, he lectures about his experiences (two hours!) here: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JVRsWAjvQSg

BTW, look into some of the other links on the page that bikewer sited above. There is an interview with Chris Comer, among others.
