I had a listen to Off the Shelf yesterday, where they were reviewing Darwin’s Legacy by John Dupré. A really fascinating 30 minute discussion on creationism and evolution. Professor David McConnell, philosophy lecturer Fr. Brendan Purcell and presenter Andy O’Mahony are well worth listening to.

Listen here with Realplayer.

Currently at work {and I should be working} Real Player of all things is restricted on the computer so I did not hear the broadcast.

I would be interested to know if the fundamental flaw in Mr. Darwin’s theory was addressed: If varying species
[heavily based re: finches on the Galapagos Islands] have survived adapting to their environment … did it address
humans adapting the environment for our survival and developing the necessary means to do so?

I had the opportunity to listen to this broadcast last night. The lingo was difficult to follow at times
but thanks for the link it was interesting.
