Casey Luskin

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin responds systematically to Michael Shermer’s recent critique of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. Shermer, founder of The Skeptic Society and editor of Skeptic magazine, denies the film’s claims that scientists Richard Sternberg and Guillermo Gonzalez were unfairly persecuted for their support of intelligent design. After a careful review of the documented facts, Luskin proves the accuracy of the film and concludes that Shermer ought to try truly being a skeptic by doubting and investigating all parties equally.

On this episode of ID The Future, Casey Luskin continues the series begun in the previous podcast (Intelligent Design 101: State of the Debate), rebutting an argument for common ancestry between humans and chimpanzees in Dr. Francis Collins’ book The Language of God. Taken from a recently finished appendix to Intelligent Design 101: Leading Experts Explain the Key Issues, Luskin responds to the notion that similar chromosomal structure between the two species is proof of a common lineage by saying plainly that the discovery is equally compatible with a theory of common design.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin announces the release of Intelligent Design 101: Leading Experts Explain the Key Issues, a new anthology that tackles intelligent design from scientific, philosophical, and legal perspectives. Luskin shares from an insightful new essay by Phillip Johnson about the state of the debate over intelligent design and evolution.

This episode of ID the Future features breaking news from the battle over science education in Florida, where anti-academic freedom activists are pushing to censor science education. Casey Luskin explains what SB 2692, the Academic Freedom Act, really entails and why it’s important to sign the petition at www.academicfreedompetition.com.

As Casey Luskin reveals in this episode of ID the Future, eminent biologists have said that they must continually remind themselves that what they see in biology evolved, and was not designed. But now engineers are turning to biology to replace human technology because biological pathways provide superior solutions to biomedical-technological needs. Is this trend more consistent with an evolved biosphere, or an intelligent designed one? Listen to this podcast and decide for yourself.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin examines a recent editorial by Nature magazine praising the NAS booklet on “Science, Evolution, and Creationism.” Luskin argues that Nature‘s rhetorical and political defense of evolution has increased to the point that it threatens the prestige of science in society and endangering the academic freedom of scientists who dissent from Darwinism.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin interviews Bobby Maddex on Salvo Magazine’s latest issue, which features a primer on intelligent design. Several luminaries in the ID community contributed to this issue, including Caroline Crocker, Larry Caldwell, Mike Egnor, Casey Luskin, Jay Richards, Denyse O’Leary, William Dembski, and many more.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin interviews Fred Cutting, a member of the Framers’ Committee for Florida’s new science standards who recently submitted a minority report suggesting that the new standards encourage students to “learn why some scientists give scientific critiques of standard models of neo-Darwinian evolution.” Mr. Cutting is a retired engineer who recently published an editorial in the The Tallahassee Democrat, “Teach Critiques of Darwin, Too.”

On this episode of ID the Future, biologist Luman Wing explains to Casey Luskin about the predictions of an intelligent design perspective in biology. Wing discusses junk-DNA, the irreducible complexity of the blood clotting cascade, and the implications of ID and Darwinism on personalized medicine. Dr. Luman Wing is a signer of the Dissent from Darwinism list.

In this ID the Future podcast, Casey Luskin interviews Dr. Luman Wing, a signer of the Dissent From Darwinism list. Dr. Wing discusses his support for systems biology and the reasons he thinks this approach to biology lends support to the theory of intelligent design.
