How have industry and technology shaped our understanding of ourselves and of our understanding and relationship with God? How have such intellectual and societal trends contributed to the rise of atheism and unbelief? We continue our conversation this week with author and teaching fellow of the Davenant Institute in Landrum, South Carolina, Dr. Joseph Minich. We discuss some of his 2023 book Bulwarks of Unbelief - Atheism and Divine Absence in a Secular Age. From the Davenant Institute Dr. Joseph Minich Dr. (PhD, The University of Texas at Dallas) is Faculty Chair and Professor of Philosophy at Davenant Hall. As part of his work, he also co-hosts the Pilgrim Faith podcast. The founding editor of Ad Fontes and former Editor-in-Chief of the Davenant Press, he is the author of Enduring Divine Absence (Davenant Press, 2018) and Bulwarks of Unbelief: Atheism and Divine Absence in a Secular Age (Lexham Press, 2023).

3/8. Darwin's Finches: The Evolution Myth and the Speed of Adaptation — Steven Moss — Moss corrects widespread misconceptions regarding Darwin's Finches, noting that Charles Darwin collected the specimens but failed to properly label their specific island origins, and subsequently employed pigeons rather than finches to explain evolutionary mechanisms. Moss discusses researchers Peter and Rosemary Grant, who demonstrated that evolutionary adaptation can occur with extraordinary rapidity, occurring within single El Niño weather events. Moss explores Australian birds, including the Magpie, as examples of misnamed convergent evolution. Moss emphasizes that all bird species, including the frequently underestimated pigeon, possess sophisticated cognitive and intelligence capabilities. 1862

In this episode of History's Greatest Idiots, we dive deep into Buckland's practice of "zoophagy," his house that was basically a Victorian zoo gone wrong, and the most infamous dinner party in history where he ate the mummified heart of King Louis XIV of France.This is the story of how brilliance and complete insanity can coexist in one man who served his guests mice on toast while a hyena in academic robes wandered through the living room.The Zoophagist's Manifesto:William Buckland's lifelong goal: eat his way through the entire animal kingdomHis philosophy: "The stomach rules the world! The great ones eat the less, and the less the lesser still!"The actual, documented menu from the Buckland household (these aren't rumours, these are from his children's memoirs)Regular dinner items: mice on toast, hedgehogs, crocodile steaks, panther chops, rhinoceros pie, roast ostrich, elephant trunk, porpoise head, horse's tongue, kangaroo ham, puppies, slugs, earwigs, and bluebottle fliesThe only two things Buckland declared disgusting: mole and bluebottle flyThe House of Chaos:Why the Buckland home was less "Victorian residence" and more "natural history museum gone catastrophically wrong"The indoor menagerie: guinea pigs, snakes, frogs, ferrets, hawks, owls, cats, dogs, a pony (INSIDE THE HOUSE), eagles, and monkeysBilly the Hyena: the real, living hyena who roamed the house in academic robesTiglath Pileser the Bear: the black bear treated as an honorary Christ Church College member who attended wine parties, enjoyed horseback riding, and once raided a sweet shopThe outdoor chaos: a giant tortoise William let people ride, plus foxes, chickens, and various creatures for "observation"Growing up Buckland: nine children raised in a house with a hyena, a bear, and a poop tableThe Heart of a King:The 1848 dinner party at Nuneham House (residence of the Archbishop of York)The silver casket containing the mummified heart of King Louis XIV of FranceHow a French king's heart ended up in England (spoiler: French Revolution and "Mummy Brown" pigment)Buckland's infamous declaration: "I have eaten many strange things, but have never eaten the heart of a king before"The moment he popped a 140-year-old royal organ into his mouth and swallowed itThe horrified reactions from distinguished guests watching a priceless historical artifact get eatenThe Serious Scientist (Because He Actually Was One):First scientific description of a dinosaur: Megalosaurus (1824)Pioneering coprolites (fossilized faeces) in palaeontology and coining the termRevolutionary work on Kirkdale Cave winning him the Royal Society's Copley MedalDiscovery of the Red Lady of Paviland (one of Britain's oldest known human remains)Contributing to modern geology by embracing glaciation theory over biblical flood narrativesTraining future scientific leaders including Charles Darwin's mentorMultiple species named after him: Megalosaurus Bucklandii, Goniopholis Bucklandi, and moreHis social conscience as Dean of Westminster, repairing the Abbey and defending mistreated tenantsThe Decline and Perfect Ending:Moving to Westminster Deanery in 1845 (with 16 staircases for maximum chaos)Signs of dementia in the late 1840s and deteriorating mental healthDeath on August 14, 1856, at age 72 from vertebrae decayThe perfect burial: discovering solid Jurassic limestone in his grave plot and needing explosives to excavate itHis friend's prophetic elegy about the geologist who couldn't escape geology even in deathHis legacy today: lunar ridges, islands, and that coprolite table still on display at Lyme Regis Museum

® “L'origine delle specie” ha rivoluzionato il mondo della biologia, e il modo di studiare e di avvicinarsi alla scienza. Ma il saggio, pubblicato nel 1859, ha conosciuto una gestazione lunghissima, a causa della riluttanza dell'autore nel mettere le sue ricerche nero su bianco. E quando lo ha fatto, il suo lavoro è inizialmente passato inosservato. Il divulgatore scientifico David Quammen ripropone il suo fortunato “L'evoluzionista riluttante”, ritratto privato di Charles Darwin e la nascita della teoria dell'evoluzione, a vent'anni dalla prima pubblicazione (Raffaello Cortina editore). Una nuova traduzione e la prefazione del Prof. Telmo Pievani, per comprendere come quella figura, che ha riscritto la storia del mondo naturale che ci circonda, sia ancora oggi largamente incompresa. Non si può collocare Darwin al di fuori del suo tempo e della realtà vicino a lui. E' necessario comprendere dubbi, incertezze, ritrosie del naturalista ed esploratore britannico per posizionare davvero il suo pensiero nella giusta prospettiva.Prima emissione 13 giugno 2025

In this inspiring rerun episode of Straight Talk with Sally, Sally Sparks Cousins tackles one of the most common fears holding entrepreneurs back: "Am I too old to succeed?" After hearing countless people share their age on sales calls as if it were a limitation, Sally dives deep into the myths around age, success, and entrepreneurial timelines. She unpacks why society glorifies youthful "overnight successes," how comparison culture distorts our expectations, and why real, lasting success is far more common later in life. Sharing research, statistics, and relatable stories—including late bloomers like Vera Wang, Charles Darwin, and her own grandmother-in-law—Sally reveals how experience, emotional maturity, fluid intelligence, openness, and grit actually make older entrepreneurs more likely to thrive. You'll also take part in a powerful visual exercise that shows just how much life and impact you still have ahead of you. If you've ever questioned whether your time has passed, this grounded, energizing episode will remind you that your journey is far from over—and your biggest successes may only just be beginning.

Apparently, the entire ecological collapse of the Galápagos Islands started because some pirates were hungry and forgot to pack food when travelling. Yes. That’s genuinely the inciting incident of this episode.Anyway—In this chaotic, mockumentary-style dive, we trace how a volcanic archipelago went from “accidental punishment island” to the stage where the goats begin their quiet, innocent march toward becoming a full-blown ecological menace.We meet pirates who never should’ve had livestock privileges, a bishop who did not mince words about how much he hated the place, Charles Darwin spiraling into an existential crisis because the birds were stressing him, and the blue-footed boobies who genuinely didn’t ask to be part of all this.This is where the saga begins, the origin story that sets up one of history’s most unnecessary wars. A war between man, nature, and goats who really should’ve just minded their business.Welcome to the beginning of the Great Galapagoat War.

In this episode of Strategic Minds, host Rich Horwath speaks with legendary strategist and bestselling author Geoffrey A. Moore, whose landmark books - Crossing the Chasm, Zone to Win, and Dealing with Darwin - have transformed how leaders approach innovation, disruption, and go-to-market strategy. Moore shares how storytelling, pattern recognition, and intellectual curiosity shaped his unique approach to strategic frameworks - tools that help executives make smarter decisions in high-risk, low-data environments. Together, they unpack how frameworks act as disruptive catalysts, enabling leaders to synthesize complexity, uncover trapped value, and allocate resources more strategically. Through examples from Salesforce, Microsoft, and Amazon, Moore explains the power of “zoning the enterprise” - aligning performance, productivity, incubation and transformation zones to optimize investment, leadership focus, and execution. His insights reveal why frameworks are not formulas but languages of strategic alignment, empowering leaders to think clearly and act decisively amid rapid business transformation.

De hecho, Ecuador es el único país del mundo que lleva el nombre de una característica geográfica. El nombre oficial del país es «República del Ecuador». A las afueras de Quito hay un famoso monumento para marcar la línea ecuatorial. El monumento está a unos 240 metros del ecuador real. Las Islas Galápagos inspiraron la teoría de la evolución. Las Islas Galápagos son famosas gracias a Charles Darwin y su teoría de la evolución. La teoría se centra en los pinzones de las islas. Darwin examinó la forma en que la misma especie de ave había evolucionado de manera diferente en cada una de las 21 islas de Galápagos.Ecuador es el paraíso de un observador de aves. Esta es una de las mejores curiosidades de Ecuador para los amantes de la naturaleza. Ecuador tiene más aves por kilómetro cuadrado que cualquier otro lugar del mundo. Con 1.632 especies diferentes confirmadas y 48 otras especies hipotéticas. Ecuador tiene el punto más cercano al sol y la montaña más alta desde el centro de la Tierra.  El Everest es la montaña más alta del mundo. Sin embargo, el Chimborazo, con sus 6.268 metros, se considera el punto más cercano al Sol. La Virgen del Panecillo es la única virgen en el mundo con alas de ángel. Esta estatua de 41 metros de altura es uno de los iconos de Quito. Ecuador, Colombia y Venezuela fueron un mismo país. Cuando consiguió la Independencia de España en 1822, Ecuador se unió al proyecto de la Gran Colombia. Por aquel entonces era un enorme país que abarcaba los territorios de los actuales Ecuador, Colombia y Venezuela. Estaba liderada por Simón Bolívar y pretendía crear una nación muy fuerte para competir con las principales potencias europeas. Ecuador es tierra de volcanes. Hay 95 en su territorio (incluyendo los de las Islas Galápagos) y lo más asombroso (y un poco acojonante) es que 35 de ellos están activos o potencialmente activos. Uno de los datos más interesantes sobre la cultura ecuatoriana es que existen al menos 14 idiomas reconocidos que se hablan en el país. El español es el idioma oficial, mientras que también se reconocen 13 idiomas indígenas, incluidos el quichua y el shua.Los plátanos son un producto alimenticio importante en Ecuador. Los plátanos son un elemento indispensable de la dieta y la cocina ecuatoriana. En el país crecen alrededor de 300 tipos diferentes de plátanos para satisfacer la demanda interna, por lo que podemos decir que aquí realmente hay un plátano para cada día y ocasión. Durante los últimos 60 años, Ecuador ha sido uno de los mayores productores mundiales de esta fruta, produciendo el 25% de los plátanos del mundo. My new Youtube channel: Spanish with Dennishttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVuRUMQGwtzBIp1YAImQFQMy new Discord server and chat and you can already join and write to me there:https://discord.gg/HWGrnmTmyCMy new Telegram channel and you can already join and write to me or comment there:https://t.me/SpanishwithDennisJoin my Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/spanishwithdennisSupport me by joining my podcasts supporter club on Spreaker:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/slow-spanish-language--5613080/supportDonate with Boosty:https://boosty.to/spanishwithdennis/donateDonate with Donation Alerts:https://www.donationalerts.com/r/dennisespinosaDonate with Crypto currency:Bitcoin (BTC)1DioiGPAQ6yYbEgcxEFRxWm5hZJcfLG9V6USDT (ERC20)0xeb8f678c0b8d37b639579662bf653be762e60855USDT (TRC20)TXoQwsaiTGBpWVkyeigApLT8xC82rQwRCNEthereum (ETH)0xeb8f678c0b8d37b639579662bf653be762e60855If you have any other suggestions or recommendations on what other platform you can support me and my podcasts, please let me know.

Bien avant Charles Darwin et sa théorie de l'évolution par la sélection naturelle, un érudit du monde arabo-musulman avait déjà formulé une idée étonnamment proche. Au IXᵉ siècle, à Bassora, le savant Al-Jāḥiẓ écrivait dans son immense Livre des animaux (Kitāb al-Hayawān) que les êtres vivants sont engagés dans une lutte permanente pour survivre. Il observait que certaines espèces s'adaptent mieux que d'autres à leur environnement et que cette “lutte pour l'existence” façonne la nature elle-même.Al-Jāḥiẓ (776-868) n'était pas seulement un écrivain : il était aussi un observateur infatigable du monde naturel. Dans un style vivant et poétique, il décrivait les comportements des animaux, leurs interactions et les lois invisibles qui gouvernent leur survie. Il notait par exemple que certains poissons ne doivent leur existence qu'à leur capacité à se dissimuler, tandis que d'autres disparaissent faute de ressources suffisantes. Pour lui, chaque espèce dépend des autres, dans un équilibre fragile où la nourriture, la reproduction et l'environnement jouent des rôles décisifs.Ce qui frappe aujourd'hui, c'est la modernité de sa pensée. Près de mille ans avant Darwin, Al-Jāḥiẓ parlait déjà d'adaptation et de compétition entre les êtres vivants. Il évoquait même les effets de l'environnement sur la forme des animaux, anticipant ainsi les bases de la biologie évolutive. Ses écrits, empreints de curiosité et d'humour, témoignent d'une vision dynamique de la nature : un monde en perpétuelle transformation où chaque créature doit trouver sa place ou disparaître.Mais à la différence de Darwin, Al-Jāḥiẓ ne cherchait pas à construire une théorie scientifique au sens moderne du terme. Son approche restait ancrée dans la philosophie et la théologie de son époque : il voyait dans cette lutte pour la survie l'expression d'une sagesse divine. La nature, pensait-il, reflète la volonté d'un créateur qui a doté chaque être d'un rôle spécifique dans l'ordre du monde.Aujourd'hui, les historiens des sciences redécouvrent l'ampleur de son œuvre, longtemps méconnue en Occident. Le Livre des animaux n'est pas seulement un recueil d'observations : c'est une tentative magistrale de comprendre la vie dans toute sa complexité. En plaçant l'interaction, la survie et l'adaptation au cœur de la nature, Al-Jāḥiẓ a, bien avant son temps, pressenti une idée qui bouleverserait la science un millénaire plus tard : celle de l'évolution.

WWII Human Experimentation PT1: The Toxic Pseudoscience of Eugenics

The Poisoner's Almanac

Hello Poison Friends! We are starting a series of sorts concerning the human experimentation that took place during WWII within the prison/concentrations camps of Nazi Germany and at Unit 731 in Japan. Before we jump into the details of these experiments, however, I think we need to go over the major philosophy that drove the atrocities of the Holocaust forward and allowed mankind to do such things to others. Eugenics is now defined as a pseudoscience, but it had a big following in the late 1800s and early-mid 1900s, even among prominent scientists and politicians. There were Eugenics societies, publications, education centers, and even events like "Better Baby Contests." The term was coined by Charles Darwin's cousin, Francis Galton, who took "survival of the fittest," and "natural selection" to an extreme Charles himself did not approve of (or at least he did not encourage it). In his view, different races fit on a sort of hierarchal pyramid with white men sitting up at the top. He and other eugenicists like him, beleived this idea that humans and people groups can be perfected through genetics and trait inheritance. You can see where this is going, I am sure. Eugenics developed from such thinking further into such ideas as "racial hygiene" and defending against "race deterioration."So, racism and the discrimination of those deemed unfit (physically or mentally disabled people, those with mental health disorders, those of a different race than caucasian, women labeled as promiscuous or hysterical or "feebleminded," etc.). Whole societies of racist white men were writing up propaganda against those they decided were "unfit." As a result, actual laws requiring the sterilization of those institutionalized were put into place, first in Indiana then another 29 states by the 1930s. This all sounds awful now, but it was becoming the popular opinion of the day, and not just in England and American. This ridiculous ideology spread from nation to nation. It was also prominent in Germany around the same time it was growing strong in America. When Hitler rose to power, he created various kinds of prison camps for those deemed "unfit" in his and his followers' view. Jewish peoples, blacks living in the area, Romani peoples, disabled people or those unable to work, and Germans who disagreed with their ways. He and his followers sought to exterminate all of those deemed unworthy or unfit in their eyes. Knowing this, we can see how they thought experimenting on these groups of people was fine. In their minds, these were not "fit human beings" and they were doomed to die anyway. Millions of people were tortured, starved, experimented on and killed as a result of this ideology, and it was more prevalent in other nations like American than most know.

Today I'm delighted to be joined by Sam co-founder of Wrigglebrew. Having witnessed first hand the devastating ecological impacts of excessive artificial fertiliser runoff on the aquatic environment, together with his business partner Gabe he started Wrigglebrew an ethical and fully independent regenerative agricultural company that has started a revolution capable of completely rewriting how large-scale agricultural fertilisers are produced and in so doing reversing many of the negative impacts that these inputs have on the wider environment. After years of careful experimentation inspired by the last works of Charles Darwin, they have harnessed the power of Earthworms to create a product that is not only organic and environmentally friendly but significantly is also cheaper than artificial fertilisers, offering struggling farmers an economic lifeline, where they don't have to choose between doing what's right for the future at the expense of their family. Whilst initially designed for large-scale application to be utilised for agriculture, you can of course also use it is your garden. Sam, Gabe and their team are incredible, they are passionate and dedicated to having a positive long lasting impact that will benefit all of us, they have started with creating a truly viable and organic alternative to industrial artificial fertilisers but that's just the beginning they also have developed an innovative solution to plastic pollution utilising earthworms. Whilst we certainly can't all be innovators we can be supporters and I would ask you to join me in supporting them, please help by sharing this episode with others to reach even more farmers and gardeners. They already have 1000s of acres being successfully farmed using their product but with your help we can get this amazing solution into the hands of even more people and help them have an even bigger impact. Learn more about SamSam Baker is the co-founder and CEO of WriggleBrew, a regenerative agriculture company turning earthworms and microbes into high-performance organic fertilizers. With a background in chemistry and economics and a passion for sustainability, Sam is pioneering new ways to transform waste—like plastics and food scraps—into living soil solutions.

Charles Darwin wrote about much more than evolution. Among other things, after his 'round-the-world trip in the 1830s, he wrote a book about coral reefs—an attempt to explain the origins of different types of reefs. A century and a half after the book was published, people got the idea that Darwin described reefs as “oases in marine deserts.” He didn't—and they're not. A recent study showed that, while reefs are some of the most vibrant ecosystems on the planet, the waters around most of them are busy as well. Researchers studied satellite observations of reefs and their surrounding waters from around the world. They also studied direct measurements of many of those environments. They looked at two key markers. One was chlorophyll—a pigment that tiny organisms use to produce energy. It colors the water green, so green water means a lot of life. The other marker was a set of compounds that serve as nutrients.             They found that about 80 percent of all the reef systems were surrounded by plentiful conditions—waters that were teeming with both chlorophyll and nutrients. Currents, tides, and fish and other organisms carry those life-giving ingredients onto the reefs. That makes the reefs oases in a land of plenty. But the easy way that these materials infiltrate the reefs also means that reefs can be more easily influenced by pollution, global warming, and the results of other human activity—damaging these vibrant ecosystems. The post Marine Oases appeared first on Marine Science Institute. The University of Texas at Austin..

We explore why the modern scientific attempt to reduce life to mindless, mechanistic processes ultimately fails, forcing biologists to use the language of agency and design to describe what they observe. The conversation delves into the history of science, the philosophy of language, and whether life requires a "ghost in the machine" to make sense.Annie Crawford on twitter - https://x.com/annielcrawfordPeople & Concepts Discussed:Annie Crawford, John Vervaeke ( @johnvervaeke ), C.S.

Un Jour dans l'Histoire
Aux origines de la domination masculine

Un Jour dans l'Histoire

Nous sommes au début des années 1870, à Londres. C'est chez l'éditeur John Murray que paraît un ouvrage intitulé : « The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex », « La descendance de l'homme », dans sa première traduction française. C'est un ouvrage signé Charles Darwin. Le naturaliste et paléontologue britannique s'interroge sur les transformations des relations entre les hommes et les femmes. Selon lui la sélection sexuelle aurait joué un rôle essentiel dans le long développement de l'humanité et permit aux hommes d‘imposer leur domination sur les femmes. Mais, s'inspirant des travaux de certains de ses contemporains comme John Lubbock pour qui les modes de vies les plus anciens, préhistoriques, sont conservés dans les sociétés dites primitives de son époque, Darwin souligne que les choix féminins ont dominé durant ces périodes. Il écrit : « (…) Chez les Abipones, une peuplade indienne de l'Amérique du Sud, l'homme qui choisit une femme en débat le prix avec les parents ; mais il arrive souvent que la jeune fille annule les transactions intervenues entre son père et son futur, et repousse obstinément le mariage. Elle se sauve, se cache, et échappe ainsi à son prétendant. Dans les îles Fidji, l'homme qui veut se marier s'empare de la femme qu'il a choisie, soit de force réellement, soit en simulant la violence ; mais, arrivée au domicile de son ravisseur, la femme, si elle ne consent pas au mariage, se sauve et va se réfugier chez quelqu'un qui puisse la protéger ; si, au contraire, elle est satisfaite, l'affaire est désormais réglée. » Darwin conclut de ces exemples que, chez les « sauvages », comme on dit au XIXe siècle, les femmes ne sont pas dans une position aussi soumise qu'on le suppose souvent. Il n'empêche, la domination masculine, avec les injustices qui en découlent, existe bel et bien et persiste aujourd'hui. Peut-on identifier les causes de cette hégémonie ? Des premiers humains aux nouveaux masculinistes, remontons aux origines de la domination masculine. Avec nous : Claudine Cohen, historienne et philosophe des sciences. « Aux origines de la domination masculine » ; Passés/Composés.

Influenced by a long line of materialist thinkers, Charles Darwin proposed the mechanism of natural selection as a substitute for God. But how does his theory's explanatory power measure up to recent scientific discoveries? On this ID The Future selected out of the archive, physicist Brian Miller discusses the resurgence of natural theology in modern science with Pat Flynn, co-host of the Philosophy for the People podcast. Natural theology advances arguments for God based on reason and the discoveries of science. It's an ancient pursuit that fell out of favor in the 19th century as a materialist account of life's origins took center stage. But scientific findings of the last century point to mind, not a mindless process, as the likeliest explanation for a life-friendly universe. As a result, the pendulum is swinging back to teleology, ushering in a new heyday for natural theology. This is Part 1 of a 2-part discussion. Source

En 1831, Charles Darwin, qui a terminé ses études de théologie à l'Université de Cambridge, pourrait se destiner à une carrière de pasteur… Mais sa véritable passion, c'est le naturalisme, l'étude et la classification de la nature dans toute sa diversité, animaux, plantes ou minéraux.

If you noticed a copy of Charles Darwin's famous nineteenth-century volume On The Origin of Species in someone's house, what would you think? Perhaps they're committed materialists. Perhaps they simply admire Darwin's work as a naturalist. Or perhaps they keep it around as a cautionary tale about the dangers of scientific hubris. Either way, you'd want to consider whether their experiences of the world around them matched their scientific worldview. Today on ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid explores the tenets of scientific materialism to see if they match our observations of the world around us. McDiarmid also shares a clip from Dr. Stephen Meyer as he highlights just one of the scientific discoveries of the last century showing that the 19th century science that produced today's scientific atheism has been eclipsed.
