For years Dr. Martin wrestled with the conflicts between evolutionary theory and the Bible. As a scientist, he was sure he knew the answers. But then his faith, as a Christian, completely changed his life. In this DVD series, Dr. Martin will point out the distinct differences between evolution and creation. He will take a look at animals that break all the evolutionary 'rules'. He will examine the many problems with evolution and show why the Bible is an excellent source of science.

Since we re not getting enough of the constant Sugar flowing from Bob Mould s Minneapolis ve decided to forage further to the east and break the lock off the overstocked New York musical pantry, bringing you a somewhat similar sounding and striking selection off the 2007 release by NY musical protagonists, Blood Red Sun. BRS let out a blast of inspirational rock that transcends what s currently on the radio waves with All at Once , from their 2007 release A Nation of Saviors on Thought Crime Records. Like neighboring New Jersey s The Milwaukees, Blood Red Sun are the torchbearers of an intelligent and solid sound movement we hope breaks some of the grip that mass media has on keeping quality new music at bay. You can purchase the tracks from A Nation of Saviors at CDBaby or iTunes. [cs] DOWNLOAD | SUBSCRIBE | SUBSCRIBE TO ALL Spread It Around: Hide Sites

Does evolution have any practical benefits for science? In this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin reveals that the answer, surprisingly, is no. Listen as Luskin discusses past biological discoveries, reviews recent surveys of biologists, and quotes several scientists, including noted Professor of Biology and intelligent design critic Jerry Coyne. All three sources agree: the theory of evolution has yielded few practical benefits for scientific discovery.

This is our universe. Our best estimates put it at some 78 billion light years across. Within this vast space there are 100s of billions galaxies, each with billions of stars. Many of these stars have planets orbiting them. Out of all these stars, we know of at least 1 that has 9 such planets.   The third planet from this star is the one we call home - Earth. Much of the Earth is molten rock of up to 7,000 degrees in temperature, but it cools near the surface forming a solid crust. The crust forms large plates which collide with each other, in turn causing volcanos and earthquakes. 70.8% of the planet's surface is covered by water, so we can't live there. Occasionally the water is forced onto the land area by seismic events or storms, devastating coastal areas. The land area comprises 29.2% of the surface, but not all of it is inhabitable. Some areas are too cold and icy winds blow across the frozen landscape. Some areas too hot and the plants on which we depend struggle to survive. Some are too high and the air is too thin to hold the oxygen we need to breath. Some are arid and the soil infertile, making it difficult to eek out a living. Some are to rugged or treacherous, making movement difficult. Some are covered in swamps or thick forests. Out of all this space, we can only survive in the smallest of fractions. Choosing some random place in the universe to visit would almost certainly mean instant death. If we confine ourselves to a sphere no bigger than the Earth our chances of survival are still remote. If we further confine ourselves to the Earth's surface we are likely to survive - at least for a short while. It seems the universe was not built for us.   In fact, If it were conscious you might think it wanted to kill us. Does it seem like the work of an designer to you? Does this seem like the work of something intelligent? Is this universe really designed for us, or are we designed for a small fraction of it?

In this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin explains why many scientists oppose intelligent design. He argues that most of the objections to ID rest on false caricatures and misunderstandings of the theory. Is ID just a negative argument against evolution? Does ID necessarily appeal to a God-of-the-Gaps? Is ID an attempt to disguise theology as science? Listen as Casey addresses these questions and shows how ID is a positive and scientific argument that infers the best explanation: intelligent design.

Long-time listeners may recall thatÂSkepticality's very firstÂinterview guest was Bad Astronomy author and popular science bloggerÂDr. Phil Plait. This past week the James Randi EducationalÂFoundation (one of the leading organizations to promote critical thinkingÂand examination of pseudoscience) announced that The Bad Astronomer himself will be the newÂJREFÂPresident. Now, Dr. Plait returns to SkepticalityÂto tell Derek & SwoopyÂnot only aboutÂinteresting advances in privately-funded space travel and theÂfuture of NASA under a new presidential administration, but also aboutÂexciting developments in his own career â including his new role at the JREF,Âchanges for Bad Astronomy, and Phil's impending trips to the Galapagos andÂDragon*Con 2008.

On this episode of ID The Future, Senior Fellow Jonathan Wells counters the Darwinian claim that humans are accidents of biology and the result of unguided natural processes like natural selection and survival of the fittest. Listen as Wells explains why Darwinism is a materialist creation myth that three-quarters of Americans are correct in rejecting.

This episode of ID the Future features an excerpt from Dr. John West’s opening comments at “Evolution and Intelligent Design: An Exchange,” a panel at a recent conference sponsored by the New Hampshire Humanities Council. Here Dr. West outlines the three most important things people should know about the intelligent design and evolution debate.

The next time your child is feeling frustrated, sad, or angry, be patient. Dr. John Gottman says how parents respond to the emotions of their children has a huge impact on them. Gottman says discouraging or dismissing your child's emotions can be harmful. He explains how being an emotion coach for your child can set her up for a healthier, more successful life. John Gottman is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Washington and co founder of the Gottman Institute in Seattle. His many books include The Relationship Cure and The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. Dr. John Gottman spoke at Town Hall in Seattle on March 5, 2008 as part of ParentMap magazine's Pathways lecture series.

The social network site Bebo.com has allowed its community to create a ground-breaking digital time capsule that will be beamed 120 trillion miles into space. The messages should reach it's destination by 2029 and if there is intelligent life out there... they *may* send a return message. Or not. But don't let that stop you.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin continues an interview with leading intelligent design theorist and CSC Senior Fellow William Dembski. Together, Dembski and Luskin address the three most common objections to design: that it is improper to infer design based on unlikely probabilities, that dysfunctional or suboptimal biological structures disprove that they were designed, and that intelligent design is nothing more than repacked creationism. Touching on such topics like pattern detection, design constraints, philosopher Immanuel Kant, and theology, Dembski shows that there are logical and reasonable answers to these objections and that intelligent design is a useful and scientific theory.

Not getting into a pissing contest with you. This is my only response- not interested in edrama.

On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin interviews leading intelligent design theorist and CSC Senior Fellow William Dembski. A mathematician and philosopher, Dr. Dembski is also a prolific writer with 3 books forthcoming this year: •Understanding Intelligent Design: Everything You Need to Know in Plain Language, a user-friendly take on ID written with students in mind. •The Patristic Understanding of Creation: An Anthology of Writings from the Church Fathers on Creation and Design, a thorough survey of the writings of the early Church theologians who were challenged by ancient Greeks who believed in an eternal world. •How to be an Intellectually Fulfilled Atheist (Or Not), co-authored with Jonathan Wells, explains how materialistic approaches to the origin of life have failed. If we still have the origin of life problem, can one be an intellectually fulfilled atheist? Would the early church fathers accept theistic evolution? What should pro-ID students do to get involved? Tune in and find out.

On this episode of ID The Future, Casey Luskin speaks with biophysicist and author Cornelius Hunter about naturalism, the dogma of evolution, and his new book Science’s Blind Spot. According to Hunter, naturalism predominates in modern science and is assumed to be capable of explaining every phenomenon in the universe. Hunter traces the historical development of this mindset, and investigates the usefulness and limitations of naturalistic science. He also analyzes the interface between naturalism and Darwinian evolution. About Dr. Cornelius G. Hunter Dr. Hunter is an engineer and biophysicist. He received his doctorate in biophysics and computational biology from the University of Illinois. Hunter has authored three books related to science, theology, and philosophy: his most recent book, Science’s Blind Spot: The Unseen Religion of Scientific Naturalism; Darwin’s God: Evolution and the Problem of Evil; and Darwin’s Proof: The Triumph of Religion over Science. All three of his books can be purchased through Amazon.com.

The mainstream rap and hip hop communities are known not only for a way with words and penchant for controversy, but also for occasional drama. Rapper Greydon Square is no exception. On this week's episode of Skepticality, Derek and Swoopy hang loose with Greydon and talk about his musical influences, being embraced by the atheist community â and why this Compton native (raised as a legal orphan by the Department of Children & Family Services of California) refuses to be a product of the system.

This episode of ID the Future features part two of an interview with Dr. Charles Thaxton, one of the first intelligent design scientists in the modern ID movement. Critics of intelligent design often try to frame ID as a political response to court rulings striking down the teaching of creationism. Today origin of life theorist and chemist Charles Thaxton tells the true history of intelligent design as a modern scientific movement fueled by new discoveries and critical examination of the evidence by open minds. Listen in as Dr. Thaxton explains what led him to ID and tells the story behind Of Pandas and People, the textbook that so disturbed Eugenie Scott because "it looks legitimate!" Charles Thaxton is a member of the American Chemical Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Scientific Affiliation and a Fellow of the American Institute of Chemistry.

On this episode of ID The Future we feature a short clip about homology -- the idea that there is structural identity and similarity of parts in distinct species such as the pentadactyl plan of the human hand, the wing of a bird, and the flipper of a seal. Scientists such as David Berlinski, Paul Nelson and Stephen Meyer argue that Neo-Darwinism explains some of the facts of homology but leaves many significant anomalies unexplained.
