Ambassador Academy, episode 21: Evolution and Intelligent Design

The ultimate Teleological Argument for the Existence of God is Creationism. Creationism comes in 3 forms: Young Earth Creationism, Old Earth Creationism, and Evolutionary Creationism (otherwise known as theistic evolution). Creationism's strongest counter-argument is Neo-Darwinian Evolution. So this episode digs into Neo-Darwinism and other forms of evolutionary theories, as well as Intelligent Design, the movement to push back against macro-evolutionary theory. Intelligent Design is merely a minimal commitment to consider the possibility that scientific evidence might point to design. NOTE: This teaching is from 2018, and my opinions of evolution and Creationism have subtly shifted since then.
