“I Want Nothing to Do With Intelligent Design” | Cambridge Evolutionary Biologist on God & Evolution

Is evolution really random – or is there a deeper structure built into life itself?
World-leading evolutionary biologist and Cambridge professor Simon Conway Morris joins scientist and philosopher of science Sam McKee for a fascinating conversation about God, evolution and the limits of science.
Conway Morris explains why he rejects Intelligent Design, while arguing that convergent evolution reveals something remarkable: again and again, evolution independently arrives at strikingly similar solutions. Could that tell us something deeper about the structure of reality?
Together they explore why Genesis shouldn't be read as a scientific textbook, whether evolution undermines the idea that humans are made in the image of God, the problem of millions of years of animal suffering – and whether discovering alien life would pose a problem for Christianity.
Plus, Sam shares the extraordinary experience in a Cambridge laboratory that brought him back to faith.
Do evolution and Christianity belong in conflict – or have we been asking the wrong questions?
