Promoting Design Arguments in Mexico and Beyond
I welcome back Dr. Brian Miller, this time to discuss his recent participation at a conference on science and faith in Guadalajara.
Convergent Evolution: An Argument That Comes at a Price
Rope Kojonen sees convergence as evidence that laws of form “play a significant role” in helping evolutionary processes cluster around similar solutions.
How Frogs and Fish “Count”
We’re beginning to find out more about how animals that don’t really “think” much can keep track of numbers, when needed.
