2012-05-17 Books --- Darwin's Black Box

"Darwin's Black Box," by Michael J. Behe, gives a detailed exposition of the chemical machines to be found within living cells.  This is probably more about cell biology than any of us ever wanted to know.  But the point is, every little thing has a cause.  If our theories cannot identify or explain the little causes then, either science has not progressed to the point where we can see the causes, or the theories are telling us lies based on wishful thinking.

Behe goes on to propose that the irreducible complexity of some cellular processes should lead the astute thinker to conclude that Intelligent Design, rather than random Evolution, caused life.  But he still claims to believe in Evolution in spite of its lack of evidence.
