New Open-Access Book from South Africa Explores Intelligent Design and Science-Faith Issues
We’ll feature excerpts here in the future, but for now I’d like to highlight some special features of chapters in the book.
Fossil Friday: The Abrupt Origins of Lagomorphs and Rodents
Molecular biologist Dan Graur mentioned his weird idea that guinea pigs are not rodents at a lecture at my university in Tübingen when I was still a student.
Fossil Friday: The Abrupt Origins of Treeshrews (Scandentia) and Colugos (Dermoptera)

Fossil Friday: Elephants and the Abrupt Origin of Proboscidea
Is this what Darwinism would predict? Of course not! Is it instead what intelligent design theory would predict? Indeed it is.
Fossil Friday: Sea Cows and the Abrupt Origin of Sirenia and Desmostylia
