Show Notes

On this episode of ID the Future Anika Smith interviews Lehigh University professor Michael Behe about irreducible complexity and the way his critics have tried to address his idea.., without actually having to address it. What happens when Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences publishes a paper substituting reducible systems to test irreducible complexity? And what does it mean when prestigious journals try to refute your idea... and keep claiming to refute it without allowing you to respond? Listen in and discover what's at the root of all this Darwinian anxiety: the power of an idea.
