10 - Evolution and design: How Do They Relate?

How do we recognise design? And how might design relate to evolution? Douglas starts by giving a summary of what Dawkins says about this. Does evidence in the natural world point to design? Douglas and Thomas don't think so, but they back different arguments against the design hypothesis. Hiromi's scepticism against the no design hypothesis is growing. She is interested in biology and brings a lot of information to the discussion, including the concept of irreducible complexity.   The Question of God is a fictional, 12-episode podcast featuring students with different views discussing philosophy, science and belief in God.
