THE EDGE OF EVOLUTION: The Search for the Limits of Darwinism published by Free Press is CSC Senior Fellow Michael Behe’s long-awaited follow up to his 1996 bestseller Darwin’s Black Box. While Darwin’s Black Box was the book that helped launch the intelligent design movement, The Edge of Evolution is certain to be a revelation and a bombshell in its own ways, and is already inviting comment and critique from scientists around the world.

This episode of ID the Future examines the new textbook Explore Evolution: Arguments For and Against Neo-Darwinism. This is the first biology textbook to present the scientific evidence both for and against key aspects of Darwinian evolution.

On this episode of ID the Future, Paul Nelson concludes his series on common descent. Nelson and Luskin take a look at a recent paper addressing phylogenies and data which seems to conflict with common descent.

This episode of ID the Future features the fourth in a series of interviews with Dr. Paul Nelson on common descent. Listen in as Dr. Nelson continues his analysis of common descent at the level of the phylogeny of animal groups.

On this episode of ID The Future CSC’s Casey Luskin interviews Dr. John West about the case of Dr. Guillermo Gonzalez, a noted astronomer and professor denied tenure at Iowa State University. Dr. West explains how the situation arose and why this is such an important case for academic freedom. Finally, Dr. West discusses the importance of tenure and that denial of tenure is tantamount to being fired.

On this episode of ID The Future CSC’s Casey Luskin discusses false information promoted by filmmaker Randy Olson regarding a 1994 textbook that used Haeckel’s fraudulent embryo drawings to promote evolution.

On this episode we provide breaking news and the latest developments in the ongoing controversy over Iowa State University’s denial of tenure to noted astronomer Dr. Guillermo Gonzalez.

On this episode of ID the Future we take a look at Iowa State University’s decision to deny tenure to astronomer and professor Guillermo Gonzalez, despite the fact that he exceeds his department’s standard of research by 350%. Two faculty members at ISU have admitted that the denial of tenure to Dr. Gonzalez had to do with his support for intelligent design, a clear violation of Dr. Gonzalez’s academic freedom. Listen in and learn more about Guillermo’s research record and how you can help support his right to follow the evidence wherever it leads.

Showtime Networks will air filmmaker Randy Olson’s fanciful evolution film Flock of Dodos this week, apparently not realizing that key parts of the film are so wildly inaccurate that they amount to a hoax. One of the film’s worst errors is its claim that modern biology textbooks have not used illustrations derived from Ernst Haeckel’s fraudulent 19th century embryo drawings as evidence for evolution. On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin shares a clip from the film Icons of Evolution which debunks one of the biggest myths in Dodos by explaining how, contrary to Olson’s film, these bogus drawings that misstate the evidence for evolution have been endlessly recycled in modern textbooks.
