Are random mutations invoked as a god-of-the-gaps?
Is Evolution actually Progressive Creation?
Did Darwin get it backwards?

Given that science is the systematic study of God's creation, one would think so. But given the philosophy of Physicalism (not to mention pride and prejudice), some are bound to disagree. See what you think.

A SCIENTIFIC DISSENT FROM DARWINISM

"We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged."

(Scientists listed by doctoral degree or current position)


How do we know that methodological naturalism, by claiming to protect science from the prejudices of theistic religion, is not in reality imposing the prejudices of atheism on scientific methodology? Joseph Renick, author of The Gospel of the Cosmos, answers that question in his thought-provoking article, "On Natural Causes".

1. ID is not an appeal to ignorance
2. ID lets evidence speak for itself
3. ID has reasonable constraints
4. ID is not a theological explanation
