Intelligent Design 101: A Reply to Francis Collins’s Darwinian Arguments for Common Ancestry of Apes and Humans

By Casey Luskin and Logan Paul Gage

Pictured above is the cover of Intelligent Design 101: Leading Experts Explain the Key Issues edited by H. Wayne House (Kregel, 2008).

A new intelligent design (ID) book titled Intelligent Design 101: Leading Experts Explain the Key Issues contains a collection of articles from pro-ID authors on a variety of topics, ranging from science, to philosophy, to law.

In particular, the book's appendix contains a response to Dr. Francis Collins, former head of the Human Genome Project. Dr. Collins is a noted theistic evolutionist -- a Christian who accepts Darwinian evolution, and outlined his arguments in the book The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief. But are his scientific arguments for evolution compelling? The IDEA Center now hosts free online this scientific rebuttal to Collins by Casey Luskin and Logan Paul Gage, showing that many of Collins' arguments for neo-Darwinism are highly disputed by the scientific evidence.
