A new, provocative book, attempts to take a middle road in the origins and evolution debate.
Born in London, Shaun Johnston's father was a Church of England clergyman, He read biochemistry at London's University College, then turned to graphic design. On moving to New York City he became a medical and science writer.
He claims his upbringing makes him immune to the lure of the supernatural. He says he matured first into epiphenomalism, from that into a non-supernatural intelligent design theory. As a result he finds himself lodged halfway between the two extremes of scientific materialism and creationism.
This could be a unique niche...an atheist who believes in intelligent design. Excuse me? See for yourself.

Dawkins himself appears in the documentary - but claims he was duped into believing it was going to be an objective account of Darwinism vs. ID.

A blogger from New England offers his intelligent reasoning.
We are a group of individuals, coming from diverse backgrounds and not speaking for any organization, who have found common ground around teleological concepts, including intelligent design.
