 Another Icon of the "Junk DNA" Argument Bites the Dust | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID The Future, CSC Research Director Casey Luskin examines a recent paper in Genome Biology and Evolution which argues that the famous beta-globin pseudogene is functional. Why is this pseudogene famous? Well, it's been Exhibit A -- literally, offered as evidence in a court case -- for critics of intelligent design who argue that our genome is full of useless, functionless junk, and therefore can't be a product of design. In light of this new evidence for the functionality of the beta-globin pseudogene, it seems that this so-called Exhibit A, collapses.

 On Human Origins: Ann Gauger Says "There's Too Much to Do and Not Enough Time" | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future, hear an excerpt of a presentation by Dr. Ann Gauger, recorded at a “Science and Human Origins” conference, sponsored by Discovery Institute in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho on Sept. 20, 2014. In this segment, Ann Gauger discusses why there isn’t enough time in the fossil record to account for human/chimp genetic differences.

 How the Latest Findings in Molecular Biology Support Intelligent Design, pt. 2 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future hear part 2 of Casey Luskin's talk on the latest findings in microbiology and how they impact the debate over intelligent design and Darwinian evolution (find part 1 of his talk here). Casey discusses the current information age of biology, and how only intelligent design can make sense of the latest discoveries.

 How the Latest Findings in Molecular Biology Support Intelligent Design, pt. 1 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future, hear the first part of a talk that Casey Luskin recently gave on the latest findings in molecular biology. Casey Luskin discusses the non-coding DNA that control a huge of the cellular processes, and what we still don't know about the genome. Listen in!

 Dr. Bill Dembski: Being As Communion, pt. 2 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future hear more of John West's interview with Dr. Bill Dembski as they discuss Dr. Dembski's latest book Being as Communion: A Metaphysics of Information. Listen in as Dr. Dembski explains 3 central points at the heart of his book: the Tang problem, the problem of no, and transposition. Find out more about the book at www.beingascommunion.com.

Also, be sure to check out Je’kob’s single “I Believe” on YouTube.

 Dr. Bill Demsbki: Being As Communion | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future, CSC Associate Director John West sits down with Mathematician and Philosopher Dr. Bill Dembski to discuss his new book Being as Communion: A Metaphysics of Information. Dr. Dembski describes his book as "trying...to make sense of the world if matter is not the most fundamental thing, but information is." Tune in to this fascinating discussion about our understanding of information, and how it can transform our view of the world. Purchase Being as Communion at Amazon.

 How We Know Intelligent Design Is Science | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin addresses the question: Is intelligent design science? While the precise definition of “science” has long been debated, most would agree that there are certain qualities that clearly define some ideas as science. Luskin examines the theory of intelligent design by this criteria, showing how ID uses the scientific method, undergoes peer review, and does not require non-natural causes.

 Je’kob: Intelligent Design & Hip Hop, pt. 2 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin continues his conversation with hip hop artist Je'kob about his new album, which includes songs that express his take on intelligent design. Casey asks Je'kob some thoughtful questions about his experiences discussing and articulating intelligent design, how his views have effected his career, and more. Listen in! "This Side of the Sky" is now available! Purchase it at Amazon or iTunes. Also, be sure to check out Je’kob’s single “I Believe” on YouTube.
