CBC's "Sunday Edition" a few years ago gave long airtime to an appallingly uncritical interview with Michael Behe, with the breathless and uncritical interviewer being Michael Enright. Behe made his claims about irreducible complexity, and I recall no rebuttal (my recollection might well be wrong).

Now it was true at the time that there are great gaps in the understanding of the formation of proteins. And of course now the gaps are being chipped away at. This post describes the situation nicely.

Many Canadians laugh at the backwardness of the US Intelligent Design advocates. They should not forget this nonsense is being taught seriously in the Toronto high school system funded by the Ontario government.

"I agree with him that much remains to be discovered; but I dont agree that that means that what we have discovered is false."

Amen. :-)
