Summary
In Marshall's estimation, evolution—as it's taught in schools today—has been corrupted into something that is a.) accidental, and b.) inter-generational. For Marshall, evolution is very purposeful. Even intentional. And furthermore, it's something that affects an organism in real time—not simply between generations. In other words, for Marshall, evolution is not incompatible with God. There could be an all-powerful God who oversees the adaption of all life on the planet.
If you're a Creationist, the party line is that evolution is a hoax. If you're pro-Evolution, you say there cannot be a God. Perry Marshall asks, Why not both? Perry Marshall's God is powerful enough to do that.
Here is what you'll learn in this episode:
* What the origins of life on earth might actually be
* How Perry Marshall has scientifically validated the existence of God
* What the scientific implications of a God might be

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Almost Here, Round the Corner of Future Technology Podcasts with Richard Jacobs. |
| 0:07.9 | Future Technologies always to transform our lives for better or worse are the focus of this podcast. |
| 0:13.6 | Almost here means these technologies are now here and starting to be used. |
| 0:17.7 | We're just around the corner. |
| 0:19.7 | From Bitcoin to artificial intelligence, |
| 0:22.0 | 3D printing, blockchain, virtual reality, and more. |
| 0:26.2 | Hi, this is Richard Jacobs with Future Tech Podcast. |
| 0:29.5 | Today, my guest is Perry Marshall, author of a book called Evolution 2.0, |
| 0:34.6 | and author of several other books that are really interesting such as 80, 20 sales, |
| 0:39.5 | and marketing. And I've known Perry and actually studied under him for many years. He's a great |
| 0:44.9 | thinker, a real innovative type person, and I think he'd be a perfect guest for the podcast. |
| 0:50.4 | And today, we're going to be talking about his recent book, Evolution 2.0, which I just reread in preparation. |
| 0:57.4 | And he'll talk about the main theme of it, but what I get from it is that, you know, current thoughts about science, it's either science is everything or religion is everything. |
| 1:07.4 | And there's this divide between the two. |
| 1:10.1 | And his book attempts to bridge that gap. |
| 1:12.4 | And the way he does it is very interesting is by showing us about bacteria and about our DNA |
| 1:17.4 | and all these amazing things that most people probably have no clue about the abilities of bacteria, |
| 1:23.4 | the abilities of our DNA. So that's what we're going to get into. Welcome, Perry. How you doing? Rich, it's great to be here. It was great to see about a month ago when I was in Austin. And I think we're going to have a really fun conversation today. So I can't wait to roll up our sleeves and dig in. Yeah. Well, if you would, can you give listeners the premise of the evolution 2.0 concept and book? |
| 1:46.9 | And we'll start there. |
| 1:47.7 | Well, if I was to summarize the book in two sentences, it's Darwinists underestimate nature |
| 1:55.7 | and creationists underestimate God. |
| 1:59.4 | I got pulled into an argument that probably almost everybody's |
