| 0:00.0 | Many of the examples that Darwinists point to to demonstrate the power of evolution, like dog breeds, for example, it turns out that the mutations behind them are degradative. |
| 0:15.0 | That is, they are mutations that degrade or break genes that were already there. |
| 0:24.7 | ID, the future, a podcast about evolution and intelligent design. |
| 0:30.7 | If life is built on complex molecular machines and information that is both complex and |
| 0:36.5 | specified, can unguided evolution actually get |
| 0:39.8 | the credit? Welcome to ID the Future. Thanks for joining us. I'm Andrew McDermid, your host. Now, today I |
| 0:46.0 | conclude my conversation with two awesome gentlemen, molecular biologist Dr. Douglas Axe and |
| 0:52.1 | biochemist Dr. Michael Behe, two experts featured in the new movie |
| 0:56.3 | The Story of Everything. Over two episodes, we're discussing their participation in the movie and |
| 1:01.7 | unpacking some of the insights they share in it. And I've got a few more exclusive clips to share |

| 1:32.3 | Here is evidence for what can only be described as a supernatural event. |
| 1:38.3 | It turned out to be the tip of the iceberg. |
| 1:41.3 | Without guidance, we would get a life unfriendly universe. |
| 1:45.0 | We're dealing with a system of manifold complex design. |
| 1:50.0 | We associate information with our rational intelligence behind it. |
| 1:56.0 | The universe, it bears everywhere the fingerprints of its creator. |
| 2:01.6 | The concept of life as a cosmic phenomenon should have many consequences. |
| 2:08.6 | The question then was what does one do about it? |
