Show Notes

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin and guest Dr. Cornelius Hunter talk about the issue of serendipity and what it means for the modern theory of evolution. Dr. Hunter discusses how Darwinian evolutionists have relied heavily on serendipity and exaptation — or, as Dr. Hunter calls it, "sheer dumb luck" — to explain complex features in biology and prop up their theory.

Cornelius Hunter holds a Ph.D. in Biophysics and Computational Biology and is an Adjunct Professor at Biola University, as well as a CSC Fellow. Dr. Hunter writes at darwins-god.blogspot.com.
