I. Welcome to ID the Future. I'm your host Andrew McDermott. Today I'm sitting down again with

Dr. Jonathan McClatchy, fellow and resident biologist at the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture.

Jonathan was previously an assistant professor at Sadler College in Boston, where he lectured

biology for four years.

He holds a bachelor's degree in forensic biology, a master's degree in

evolutionary biology, a second master's degree in medical and molecular bioscience, and a PhD

in evolutionary biology. His research interests include the scientific

evidence for design and nature, arguments for the existence of God, and New Testament

scholarship. Jonathan is also founder and director of Talk About Doubts.com.

Great to be here. How are you doing, Andrew?

Without our body's ability to innovate and circumvent these natural inclinations, we'd be toast.
