In the podcast below, RC Sproul addresses first cause. Atheists often use the infinite regress problem in an attempt to argue against God as the first cause. Simply, they ask the question that children often ask, “Who made God?” Sproul presents an effective refutation of the infinite regress problem and discusses how the law of [...]
In this post, I seek to take a step back from the ID/evolution debate, and consider things from a Christian perspective. Jesus often spoke in parables, and explained the reason to his disciples:
“The knowledge of the secrets of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. This is why I speak to them [...]
There is perhaps no other fact more important to the Christian faith than the resurrection of Christ. Indeed, Paul writes, “And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain” (1 Cor. 15:14).
This is a topic that has been given a thorough treatment by theologians and apologists. [...]

William Dembski posted on a new website launched by the Discovery Institute (faithandevolution.org). The design is sleek, and there is some useful information there. I was reading some of the information on theistic evolution and came across this astounding passage:
And biologist Kenneth Miller of Brown University, author of the popular book Finding Darwin’s God (which [...]
Dickie D, and another fellow discuss evolution in this video. They start off talking about the eye, and state that it is not designed because it is poorly designed. In other words, they claim this falsifies ID. Which is interesting given that Darwinists state that ID is not science and not falsifiable. Then also interestingly, [...]

Charles Darwin should be spinning in his grave: More than 40 percent of American adults still don’t believe in evolution. Though Darwin’s theory has been uncontroversially accepted among scientists, public resistance remains remarkably forceful. Meanwhile, creationism and intelligent design enjoy widespread public support. (1)
Clichés aside, I don’t think Darwin or any other naturalist should make [...]
Indeed. It’s a conundrum for an anti-design perspective. From an ID and theological perspective, it’s not surprising that even the quantity of this material points to design. The notion from the anti-design perspective is that “common sense doesn’t work.” Fine. Sometimes it doesn’t. But, I don’t think people even have to rely on “common sense” to support a design perspective. You can rely on logic, philosophy, and scientific reasoning to support a design perspective. It just happens that these perspectives can also correspond with “common sense.” The same cannot be said for an anti-design perspective.

RC Sproul talks humanism (1), existentialism (2), and Descartes (3). Even if you’re not a Christian, he gives some interesting history lessons.
(1). Humanism
(2). Existentialism
(3). Descartes pt 1

Denyse O’Leary recently wrote about an ongoing debate (December 7-8, 2008) about Intelligent Design vs. evolution. (1)
Atheist philosopher Bradley Morton said in an ID the Future Podcast:
“I actually find some of the intelligent design arguments at least somewhat plausible, and at least taking seriously within academia, and I’m unhappy with the unfair and false criticisms [...]

My wife is the more philosophically trained individual in our household–she teaches philosophy and logic.

Apologetics; The Teleological Argument for God
Apologetics; The Cosmological Argument for God
The Ontological Argument for God
Apologetics; The Moral Argument for God…
