Gregory Shearer
Professor of Nutritional Sciences
Book Title
Darwin's Black Box
Book Description
This book came to me right as I was beginning graduate school and examining the epistemic claims of scientists and theologians. I had long suspected Darwinist explanations were weak and overstated; however, Dr. Behe helped elucidate and frame my suspicions. Later, when I discovered questioning “Chuck D” is sacrilege and received threats to my career, I placed Dr. Behe and friends in the back seat. Today, tenure and full professorship give me hope that heterodoxy can return to academia.
