(short) Book Review: A book that may be of some interest....
(Review by Amazon)
"With molecular biologist Douglas Axe, it was precisely from his lab work at Cambridge University, back in the 1990s, that the failure of Darwinian theory started to become clear. Why? It was
the experimental evidence that evolution can't do what it's advertised to do.
He and his colleagues were trying to put Darwinian processes to work in designing new enzymes. It should have worked -- since evolutionary thinking asserts that these exquisite designs in nature are exclusively the product of unguided shuffling and selection. But as he describes in another video conversation, above, Dr. Axe found otherwise.
Axe argues that the key to understanding our origin is the “design intuition”—the innate belief held by all humans that tasks we would need knowledge to accomplish can only be accomplished by someone who has that knowledge. For the ingenious task of inventing life, this knower can only be God.
Starting with the hallowed halls of academic science, Axe dismantles the widespread belief that Darwin’s theory of evolution is indisputably true, showing instead that a gaping hole has been at its center from the beginning. He then explains in plain English the science that proves our design intuition scientifically valid. Lastly, he uses everyday experience to empower ordinary people to defend their design intuition, giving them the confidence and courage to explain why it has to be true and the vision to imagine what biology will become when people stand up for this truth.
Armed with that confidence, readers will affirm what once seemed obvious to all of us—that living creatures, from single-celled cyanobacteria to orca whales and human beings, are brilliantly conceived, utterly beyond the reach of accident."
