There Are No Equal Signs in Biology

Jay Cross interviews me about my new paper, The Reasonable Ineffectiveness of Mathematics in the Biological Sciences (co-authored with Sy Garte and Stuart Kauffman.) Together we explore why “there are no equal signs in biology,” how this revelation redefines medicine as we know it, and the post-computational, post-permission future of healing—with new hope for people…

Beyond Evolution: Purposeful Biology Isn’t Just For Christians Anymore

Listen to the podcast here! Sy Garte’s book, Beyond Evolution, is written for the person who is trying to reconcile their deep yearnings for meaning and significance with the longstanding scientific dogma that nature has no purpose. Not only is the tide shifting dramatically inside of secular science, the new discoveries are connecting gaps between…

Bridging Evolution: A Conversation Between Intelligent Design and Third Way

What happens when researchers from competing scientific worldviews sit down for an honest conversation? In this dialogue, three thinkers—exploring Neo-Darwinism, Third Way evolution, and Intelligent Design—discover unexpected common ground while respecting disagreements. Denis Noble (Oxford University, Third Way evolution, www.thethirdwayofevolution.com), Casey Luskin (Discovery Institute, Intelligent Design, www.evolutionnews.org), and Perry Marshall (Evolution 2.0, bridge-builder, www.evo2.org) engage…

Efficiency in Nature: Teleology Hidden in Plain Sight

I got a question from an astute reader: I picked this passage out of a book as an example to help raise a philosophical question about biology and purpose and intent: There are many connected species that deal with dead animals in a river system. There are species in the water and species on the…

Sara Walker’s “Life As No One Knows It”

Assembly Theory and the Third Transition in Science Before I describe Life as No One Knows It, I need to point out that Sara Imari Walker has achieved something extraordinarily difficult. Despite being a highly credentialed scientist with first class collaborators (including Lee Cronin, Paul Davies and her team at ASU), the task she’s undertaken…

What does it mean to truly flourish?

Andrew Briggs started to write the book Human Flourishing just before COVID and then the world went mad. Since then, the world has gotten even madder and many people are clutching their smartphones, wringing their hands, managing their anxiety, or merely existing. What does it mean to flourish and what do people, relationships, and professions…

Feel sorry for scientists?

I sympathize with the pain of scientists losing their grants. But… when you make a deal with the devil, you get the horns. My own 20 years of self-funded scientific work has shown me that most scientists are government employees who’ve literally signed away their autonomy and freedom of speech. Scientists must be EXTREMELY vigilant…

Life doesn’t merely obey rules. Life CREATES them.

Tim Howard interviews me and Sy Garte about our new paper with Stuart Kauffman The Reasonable Ineffectiveness of Mathematics in the Biological Sciences. Join us for a fascinating discussion about a new revolution underfoot in biology:
