Richard Weikart on Michael Ruse’s “Compromise” with Christianity




Intelligent Design The Future show

Summary: On this episode of ID the Future, From Darwin to Hitler author and historian Richard Weikart returns to his conversation with Mike Keas about a recent book on Darwinism, Christianity, and war by Michael Ruse. Ruse aims at a surprising conclusion in this book. Weikart says he gets there first of all by overlooking several of the most important early voices on Darwinism and war. And the book’s conclusion? That Christianity should “compromise” with a form of religious Darwinism Ruse favors, by giving up on core Christian doctrines. Weikart pushes back. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast: idthefuture.org/donate.
