Tonight at UNLV there’s going to be lecture entitled “Intelligent Design: A Unique View of Globalization and Science” by Gunther Stent, emeritus professor of cell and molecular biology at UC Berkeley. From the abstract blurb that’s going around, I gather that he’s no friend of ID but is willing to concede that evolutionary orthodoxy is wrong in some areas. I’ll post my thoughts on the lecture afterwards.<\/p>\n
For now, I’d like to provide a link to a nice short paper that helps define what the Intelligent Design movement is all about. Critics often try to pigeonhole the movement, either by panning it as an essentially “religious” movement or even more narrowly as merely disguised “creationism”. This article shows why those are inaccurate charicatures.<\/p>\n
