0:00.0 | I d the future a podcast about evolution and intelligent design. |
0:12.0 | This is Andrew McDermott for ID the Future. |
0:17.0 | On this episode, an interview with Doug Axe, director of the Biologic Institute. |
0:22.0 | He's author of Undeniable, how biology confirms our |
0:25.3 | intuition that life has designed. And he's here with me today to help me introduce the book to |
0:30.4 | you. Doug, thanks for joining us today. Thank you for having me. So, Doug, tell us why did you write undeniable? |
0:38.0 | Well, I wrote it for everyone, for non-scientists and scientists to read. I had spent a little over 25 years in |
0:46.8 | laboratory doing experimental research with colleagues and I was particularly interested in whether it can invent new molecular things, the protein machines that life needs in order to work. |
1:06.0 | I and my colleagues all along these 25 years were doing that work of testing and publishing results in peer-reviewed science journals. |
1:16.0 | But at the end of it, when I had the opportunity to write a book, |
1:20.0 | I decided I didn't want to simplify scientific technical results for non-technical readers. |
1:28.0 | Instead, I wanted to build a non-technical argument and write a non-technical book. |
1:33.0 | So the title of the book is undeniable, |
1:35.0 | how biology confirms our intuition that life is designed. |
1:38.0 | I titled that because I start with an intuition, |
1:42.0 | something that we all have, |
1:43.6 | something that is not technical, we all get it. |
1:46.3 | And the book argues that this particular intuition, |
1:48.8 | the intuition that living things are designed |
1:51.9 | turns out to be not only correct, but it's scientific in nature. |
1:55.2 | So a big chunk of the book is arguing that we all do this kind of science, this very simple, |
1:59.9 | everyday kind of science that I call common science, and that that kind of science confirms the intuition. |
