Published: Nov. 11, 2019, 5 a.m.

b'Along with Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin is one of the two leading scientists in our modern era.\\xa0 The topic of evolution dominates biology and has permeated our thinking far beyond Darwin\'s original conception of the subject.\\xa0 To believe in evolution is tantamount to being considered a civilized human being.\\xa0 But a major problem presents itself:\\xa0 how many people actually understand what Darwin said or what natural selection means?\\xa0 How many people realize that according to modern Darwinians, such as Richard Dawkins, the entire living world arose through the mindless selection of random mutations?\\xa0 Can a world with such obvious signs of design have arisen without a designer?\\xa0 On today\'s show, Philip interviews Professor Michael Behe, the author of the best-selling book, Darwin\'s Black Box and the new book, Darwin Devolves:\\xa0\\xa0The New Science About DNA That Challenges Evolution (https://www.amazon.com/Darwin-Devolves-Science-Challenges-Evolution/dp/0062842617%20).\\xa0 These science books raise a difficult question for the Darwinian model: random, directionless mutations are much more likely to destroy a living organism than create a new one. If so, then how did random mutations create the living world?\\xa0 Listen in for the answer to this question.'
