Casey Luskin

On this first of a two part ID The Future, CSC’s Casey Luskin interviews CSC Fellow Dr. Geoffrey Simmons on what makes him skeptical Darwinian evolution. Dr. Simmons has a BS in biology; coursework completed for MS in microbiology, University of Illinois; an M.D., University of Illinois Medical School; Internship and Residency in Internal Medicine, LAC-USC Medical Center; Boarded in Internal Medicine since 1974. He is a licensed and practicing physician in Eugene, OR, and the author of the books What Darwin Didn’t Know (2004) and the forthcoming Billions of Missing Links (2007).

On this episode of ID The Future, CSC’s Casey Luskin interviews Access Research Network’s Dennis Wagner about the top intelligent design news stories of 2006.

On this episode of ID The Future we speak with CSC attorney Casey Luskin about the recent report which showed that in last year’s Kitzmiller vs Dover School District intelligent design trial federal Judge John Jones copied the ACLU’s findings of fact nearly verbatim in the section of his ruling dealing with whether or not ID is science. That section was the core of his ruling, in which he said that ID is not science and so should not be allowed for discussion in Dover Area schools. Jones later went on a speaking tour touting his ruling and basking in the accolades of the likes of Time magazine who hailed him as one of the 100 most influential people because Read More ›

On this episode of ID The Future, Casey Luskin takes a look at so-called ‘junk DNA.’ Over the years, many (though not all) Darwinists have stated that non-coding DNA is not worth exploring because it is thought to be mere evolutionary junk. In 2003, Scientific American explained that “the introns within genes and the long stretches of intergenic DNA between genes, Mattick says, ‘were immediately assumed to be evolutionary junk.’” But, as Luskin reports that fact that ‘junk DNA’ is not junk has emerged not because of evolutionary theory but in spite of it. Perhaps it’s time for a new approach to “junk” DNA.

On this episode of ID The Future, CSC’s Casey Luskin reviews the new book by Dr. Thomas Woodward, Darwin Strikes Back. As Luskin notes, Woodward takes on the response to ID from critics. His book will shake whatever confidence readers may have had left in the overall objectivity of the Darwinian establishment.

On this episode of ID The Future we have the third and final installment of Casey Luskin’s examination of National Geographic’s pro-evolution article “From Fins to Wings,” by Carl Zimmer.

On this episode of ID The Future we have part two of Casey Luskin’s examination of National Geographic’s pro-evolution article “From Fins to Wings,” by Carl Zimmer.

On this episode of ID The Future, CSC’s Casey Luskin examines National Geographic’s pro-evolution article “From Fins to Wings,” by Carl Zimmer which quotes Harvard microbiologist Howard Berg saying “The basic idea of evolution is so elegant, so beautiful, so simple.” As Luskin shows, the article misses the target in a number of ways. Luskin asks In our experience, does a “simple” process generate the type of vast complexity found throughout biology? Then he shows that Zimmer’s answer is a just-so story.

On this episode of ID The Future, CSC’s Casey Luskin examines the recent crusade against religion by the world’s foremost Darwinist, Richard Dawkins. In a recent BBC news article Dawkins claimed that America is ready for an attack on religion. What is Dawkins’ attack? He aims to convince people that the religions of their upbringing are nonsense and that life comes about through purely natural, Darwinian processes.

Recently, seismologists were met with the unfortunate news that North Korea probably tested a nuclear weapon and handed the task of confirming whether the North Korean government was truthful when they claimed they tested a nuke. Interestingly, they will be using the theory of intelligent design in trying to distinguish between naturally caused seismic energy and seismic energy which was artificially produced by an explosion caused by intelligence.
