THINK ABOUT THIS: Can Darwinian Evolution Explain Both Man’s Origins And Our Morals?

Lord Alfred Tennyson, the 19th Century British poet, famously described nature as full of violence and death, “red in tooth and claw.” He thus captured in a most vivid image the idea that survival of the fittest is the basic law of nature.

The image is also a fitting starting point for an introduction to the following Discovery institute video of Dr. John West explaining why Charles Darwin’s explanation of human origins and morality in the process of natural selection is deeply flawed.

West is Vice President of the institute, as well as Associate Director of its Center for Science and Culture. He holds a Ph.D. in political science from Claremont University, and he is a member of Phi Beta Kappa.
