Origins Discussed at Iowa State University

A couple of lectures at Iowa State University discuss origins, including Intelligent Design.

The news story begins with a rather provocative statement that "many
scientists and academics have long since discredited biblical creationism, the belief that God created the world as described in Genesis, replacing it with evolution and the Big Bang." Says who?? Says the journalism major author at ISU.

Tuesday's lecture, by Del Ratzsch, professor of philosophy at the
Calvin College in Michigan, approached the issue from a pro-ID perspective.

In the following lecture, two ISU faculty members who have been long noted for their arguments against the teaching of creationism and against the existence of God will critique a 2004 intelligent design book, The Privileged Planet) by an ISU professor, Guillermo Gonzalez, assistant professor of physics and astronomy.
