Stephen Meyer is one of the first persons to turn my mind from liberal thinking. While I was a Christian during college, I was a biology major and allowed myself to be indoctrinated during college. It was not until after university that I ventured into different theories and different ways of thinking. I wish I could express my graditude to not only Stephen Meyer, but Dr. John Lennox, David Berlinski, and several others

Meyer's essential claim is that the rapid diversity that occurred during the so-called "Cambrian Explosion" cannot be explained by normal evolutionary mechanisms and hence the best explanation is that of intelligent design. Unfortunately, as many reviewers with a scientific background especially in paleontology and biology have indicated, Meyer is highly selective and often leaves out critical information.[1] The Cambrian Explosion Approximately 540 million years ago a rapid expansion of multicellular life occurred when most of the animal phyla appeared in the fossil record. Despite claims by Meyer, diversification began during the Ediacaran through the Early Cambrian period. The Cambrian itself is divided into several parts or stages of which Meyer seems to only discuss the third stage as if its the only one and down playing the others as if they are unimportant. Meyer's view is that the rapid diversification occurred in only a couple of million years (not enough time for evolution to occur) while mainstream science argues that the evidence indicates that it was in the time frame of 20-25 (or more) million years which is plenty of time for evolution.

Derf Head Apache Junction KTM rules, Meyer addresses all the points you make in his book. Nothing is ignored or hidden. Plus he doesn’t assume only a couple million years. He quotes Cambrian experts (who are not ID advocates) on the time period for the Cambrian. The core issue he makes is usually ignored by critics. It is not merely a question of time, but also a lack of any mechanism with the causal capacity for innovative new designs. The scientists of the Third Way of Evolution (again not ID) affirm that neo-Darwinism lacks any such mechanism. They hope to find some 3rd way that doesn’t involve design. If you want to consider what Meyer actually says, get either or both of his books.

The points emphasized by these guys made me realize, after I looked into their research and arguments for myself (rather than just reactively believing what they or anyone else had told me), that, at a very basic level, science (and therefore scientists) should "question everything". This only opens the door for more good and true science. Science was never intended to be and is of no use as dogma. But unfortunately, I was taught exactly the opposite at university. So truly, I am so grateful for true pursuers of science like Stephen Meyer.

He is great pointing out self-refuting nature of some of Hitchen's quotes i.e. "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence"...However, I don't think Berlinski adequately dulled "Hitchens razor"..."the one with the claim has burden of proof and opponent need not argue." The reason for this is that Berlinski is really a kind of sceptic/ agnostic(?). Therefore he doesn't make a lot of claims so much as point out faulty reasoning of other claims.

I love this show, it really let's people let loose and pour their hearts out. The questions are always solid and the answers are always great and interesting. Admittedly it's a little hard for me to keep up with Stephen Meyers because the dude is ridiculously smart, but I always learn so much from him in the end. :3

Unbelievable. Breathtaking from start to finish. Elucidation of well researched and thought out stream of consciousness conversation between two minds of equivalent prowess. Certainly one of the very best presentations of logical discourse available on KZread. Period. Thank you Ben Shapiro!

A beautiful adventure chauffeured by Ben Shapiro. Thank you!

This is THE BEST interview so far. Wow.

Outstanding interview. Was not familiar with Stephen C. Meyer prior. Chock-full of info. Going to have to listen again to think through some of it fully.

Ben has not ceased to amaze me. His questions demonstrate that his intellect is in a higher stratum than most political pundits, bar none. Not only is incisive in the political and philosophical, but he can also keep up and even sharply engage in such a heady, scientific discussion.

Two of my favorite intellectuals in one room, I’m looking forward to this.

My dream came true! Stephen Myer & Been Spapiro!

@@cleytonbentes3133 Barbara Forrest's expert witness report for the Dover trial: "Conclusions about the intelligent design creationist movement. My area of expertise is the nature and strategy of the intelligent design (ID) creationist movement. Based on the research I have done, I have concluded that its program is a fundamentally religious one. This conclusion is based primarily on ID leaders’ and their supporters’ views of it as stated in their own words. It is also based upon their total rejection of naturalism. Anti-naturalism is an integral part of ID. Its proponents reject not only philosophical naturalism (the metaphysical view that nothing exists beyond the natural world) but also the naturalistic methodology of science (the scientific procedural protocol of seeking only natural explanations of natural phenomena). ID’s rejection of naturalism in any form logically entails its appeal to the only alternative, supernaturalism, as a putatively scientific explanation for natural phenomena. This makes ID a religious belief. In addition, my research reveals that ID is not science, but the newest variant of traditional American creationism. With only a few exceptions, it continues the usual complaints of creationists against the theory of evolution and comprises virtually all the elements of traditional creationism."

Dr Meyer is amazing! His two books are masterpieces and I can't wait for his newest effort. There is only one known cause of specified and complex information in our uniform experience: intelligence!

​@@LomuHabana There is the abstract called “eternity”. Eternity is sometimes misleadingly interpreted as “infinitely long time”. However “eternity” equals with “no time at all”. In eternity there is no time. You can not measure eternity. Eternity has no start no end. The Intelligent Designer had to be eternal, someone who was not depending on the laws of nature which he made for the Universe. One doesn't need to name that someone. I call him God when I write in English. According to Bible the eternal God created both time and space. It would be against formal logic to ask “when” or ”how” God came into being. Words like before, now, after, when, how etc. are bound to time, but there is no time in eternity. An eternal entity can not be created. A creation would need a moment but there are no moments in eternity. I have a very practical reason to believe in creationism because abiogenesis and evolution have both been scientifically proven impossible, at least as long as we believe that the laws of physics and the genetic realities have always been as they are. After years of observing the battle between the evolution theory and the intelligent design, I have come to the conclusion that here we have the battle between atheism and science. This is revealing: “Darwin made it possible to be an intellectually fulfilled atheist.” (Dawkins) So atheism per se has nothing to do with intellect or science. Atheists are just happy if they feel like getting some support from science. Here we talk of a worldview, not of a scientific approach. DNA contains information in a written code. That kind of information can only come from an intelligent source. I don’t want to insult anyone, but to claim that abiotic matter started thinking, planning and building itself refers to inability for rational thinking.

Mr. Shapiro. Thank you very much for giving Dr. Meyer a platform to discuss intelligent design.

Big fan of Stephen Meyer and his work with ID. Darwin’s Doubt is a great read. His writing is eloquent, detailed, and broken down in terms that a non-science person can understand. He’s really turned my mind in terms of considering a theistic view to the origin of life. ID is a vey interesting science based argument.

Kept having to check if I accidentally set it to 2x speed.

Did know Stephen Meyer. Glad that I know now!!

It would be great to have more of this. Thanks Stephen!
