Sección del programa de Rpa "La radio es mía" que demuestra que la modernidad es algo que viene de antiguo. Emisión del 15/2/2021, decimoctava de la sexta temporada, dedicada a Alejandro Finisterre (1919-2007), el inventor del futbolín. Dueño de una vida novelesca, Alexandre Fisterra fue inventor, poeta, anarquista, coreógrafo, conferenciante, fabricante de cajas de música, académico de la lengua gallega, pionero del secuestro aéreo, albacea de León Felipe y, por encima de todo, editor. Con su editorial Finisterre y su revista Ecuador 0º 0' 0" fue uno de los principales editores del exilio español. Los libros de León Felipe, Max Aub, Francisco Ayala, María Teresa León, Luisa Carnés o Emilio Prados, prohibidos en la España de Franco, vieron la luz gracias a él. También editó a decenas de autores latinoamericanos como Rafael Solana, Ernesto Cardenal, Griselda Álvarez, Octavio Paz o Paco Ignacio Taibo; aunque su gran éxito editorial fueron los libros de Mario Moreno Cantinflas que publicó en exclusividad. Esta labor editorial en México, en concreto la publicación de la Nueva Antología de León Felipe, le valió para ser detenido en Ourense al mes de la muerte del dictador. En 1977, regresó a España y gestionó con el ayuntamiento de Zamora el archivo de León Felipe, del que fue albacea testamentario. Tuvo que morir para que el ayuntamiento de su pueblo natal, Fisterra, cuyo nombre llevó por el mundo, le nombrara hijo predilecto.

“Yo señor, no soy malo, aunque no me faltarían motivos para serlo. Los mismos cueros tenemos todos los mortales al nacer y sin embargo, cuando vamos creciendo, el destino se complace en variarnos como si fuéramos de cera y en destinarnos por sendas diferentes al mismo fin: la muerte”. Fragmento de “La familia de Pascual Duarte” Camilo José Cela. El panorama literario presentaba en los primeros años de posguerra un aspecto lastimoso; de poco valieron, en líneas generales, los escasos personajes de la cultura que decidieron permanecer en España tras la victoria de los rebeldes. La pobreza y las limitaciones culturales se dejaron sentir en la novela más poderosamente que en ningún otro género, obligándola a desarrollarse muy al margen de cualquier referencia inmediata. Sin embargo en los años cuarenta se pudieron conocer su consagración varios narradores que publicaban por esos años sus primeras novelas. Una brillante carrera literaria ha consagrado a Camilo José Cela (1.916-2002), desde su primera novela en 1.942 hasta la concesión del Nobel en 1.989. Aplaudido por la crítica y el público, Cela se convirtió en el escritor español más popular de la posguerra, gracias también a su colaboración en periódicos, a su imagen de notable orador en televisión y a su gusto por la ironía, las palabras gruesas y el erotismo, que le ganaron una imagen no siempre acorde con la del narrador. Su novela “La familia de Pascual Duarte” de 1.942, constituyó una auténtica revelación en el panorama de esa época ya que es una novela notable que, para muchos, es la mejor de la producción de su autor. Existen en ella las dosis justas de equívoca denuncia social y de contemplación, entre escéptica y angustiada de la existencia humana tan características del estilo de Cela que le ganaron el favor del público y el beneplácito tanto del régimen franquista como de la democracia posterior. Junto a esta novela, suele tenerse por su mejor obra a “La colmena” de 1.951, calificada de social y prohibida por la censura franquista. La obra es una narración de personajes colectivos y técnica caleidoscópica, por la que discurren más de trescientos personajes y cuya intención es mostrarnos la sórdida vida del Madrid de posguerra. Por lo demás, no hay argumento posible en esta crónica selectiva de la vida de los años cuarenta, aunque existe el denominador común de la miseria material y moral de sus personajes, cuya alienación se subraya entrecruzando sus vidas carentes de sentido. Después de un paréntesis, Cela publico “San Camilo 1.936” en 1.969, que intenta ser una interpretación de las motivaciones de la Guerra Civil. Insiste, por tanto, en algunos motivos y temas de las obras anteriores, e ideológicamente sigue tratándolos, cuando menos, con demasiada ambigüedad y desde una perspectiva en exceso selectiva; sin embargo su estilo supone un avance significativo en la evolución de su narrativa, pues se apropia de una prosa compleja, que hace suyas las nuevas técnicas narrativas. Así en “Mazurca para dos muertos” de 1.984, que retoma el tema de la guerra desde una perspectiva peculiar, para muchos marcó el definitivo agotamiento de Cela, preludiado por “Oficio de tinieblas” de 1.973, que fue un libro ajeno a toda materia narrativa. A partir de ahí se confirmó la dificultas del Nobel para dar nuevas novelas a la imprenta en los últimos años de su vida. Constante y regular es, por contra, la producción de Miguel Delibes (1.920-2010). Su primera obra “La sombra del ciprés es alargada” de 1.948, evidencia las excelentes dotes de su autor; se trata de una novela tradicional donde Delibes intenta plasmar la vida cerrada de las ciudades castellanas de provincias. Pero su obra no alcanzará cierta dimensión crítica hasta “El camino” de 1.950, un bello cuadro del paraíso perdido de la infancia contemplada desde la experiencia adquirida en el paso de la juventud a la madurez. Citemos también, entre sus novelas de las décadas de los cincuenta y los sesenta, “La hoja roja” de 1.959, donde denuncia la insolidaridad de la sociedad que confina a los ancianos a la soledad y “Las ratas” de 1.962, un retablo ya más complejo de la España de posguerra cuya denuncia es más explícita y amarga. La crítica de Delibes no posee filiación política ni ideológica, sino que se pone al servicio de un credo humanista que, por ejemplo, le ha llevado a a defender desde los años cincuenta el ecologismo. La segunda trayectoria trazada por el autor desemboca en “Cinco horas con Mario” de 1.966, una de las novelas sobre las clases medias más logradas y técnicamente más avanzadas de aquellos años, y donde adquiere pleno sentido la dimensión crítica de su narrativa. La novela es un extenso monólogo interior en el que Carmen va desgranando, en la vela del cadáver de su marido, los episodios de una vida matrimonial deteriorada. Presidida por esa única voz narrativa en la que predomina el tono irónico, la obra nos abre al mundo de la burguesía provinciana dominado por el conservadurismo y la hipocresía contra los que choca cualquier intento de apertura a la sinceridad y a las libertades. De sus novelas posteriores, que no lograron la altura de “Cinco horas con Mario”, recordaremos “Parábola del náufrago” de 1.969, y “El disputado voto del señor Cayo” de 1.978. Caso aparte es el de “Los santos inocentes” de 1.981, otra de las cimas narrativas de Delibes; con ella vuelve a sus temas más queridos: el paisaje y la vida rurales, tratados con un notable sentido lírico; la caza como un modo de vida tradicional en la España más profunda, y una ácida crítica social de ese entorno, siempre tratados con equilibrio y humanismo, denunciando con rotundidad el quebrantamiento de la justicia social en una sociedad falsamente tradicionalista. Muy distinto al de Cela y Delibes es el caso de Gonzalo Torrente Ballester (1.910-1.999), un autor consagrado treinta años después de la publicación de su primera novela “Javier Mariño” de 1.943, que se instala en la órbita de la novela falangista, donde revela ya las dotes narrativas del autor, a pesar de su declarado partidismo. El escritor no volvería a incurrir en ese defecto y su obra posterior se caracteriza por una calculada ambigüedad, un sarcasmo y un distanciamiento que tienen su mayor expresión en la desmitificación a la que somete la materia culta de muchas de sus novelas. Entre los años cincuenta y sesenta alcanza Torrente Ballester una de sus cimas narrativas: La trilogía de “Los gozos y las sombras” de 1.957 a 1.962. Con esta obra el autor se aproxima desde el realismo tradicional a la novela social imperante en esos años obteniendo mejores logros que otros escritores, concretamente en la construcción de sus personajes y en el planteamiento del conflicto, que sabe abstraerse a la oposición entre dos concepciones vitales: la fidelidad a sí mismo o el culto al poder. Con “La saga/fuga de J.B.” de 1.972, Torrente Ballester experimenta nuevos recursos y posibilidades, siendo un título fundamental del formalismo narrativo en España. La imaginación se adueña de este extenso relato que obtuvo un éxito inmediato y consagró definitivamente al autor. Torrente sigue esta línea en algunas de sus novelas posteriores como “Fragmentos de Apocalipsis” de 1.977 y “La isla de los jacintos cortados” de 1.981, dos ejercicios de altos vuelos que, en gran medida, nos dan cuenta del mismo proceso creativo. A partir de ellas, y hasta su muerte, Torrente Ballester no ha hecho más que repetirse, descendiendo por lo general, a veces alarmantemente, la calidad de su producción. Al margen de la labor que pudieran estar desarrollando estos grandes de la narrativa española contemporánea, los años cuarenta conocen el florecimiento de un realismo tradicional, de tono burgués, en la vena más característicamente decimonónica. Sus cultivadores son básicamente autores conservadores, más o menos cercanos al régimen. Juan Antonio Zunzunegui (1.902-1.982), fue un escritor incansable cuyas novelas evocan y ensalzan la moral y el trabajo burgueses, así como el progreso y el sistema social que aquellos implican. Muy parecida temática desarrolla la producción de Ignacio Agustí (1.913-1.974) quién hace de la crisis de la burguesía el motivo de su obra fundamental, “La ceniza fue árbol” de 1.944 a 1.972, extensa novela-rio integrada por cinco libros, donde destacan “Mariona Rebull” y “El viudo Rius”, que desarrollan la historia de una familia burguesa catalana desde finales del siglo XIX hasta la Guerra Civil. En cierto modo es una novela-rio la trilogía que le abrió las puertas del éxito a José María Gironella (1.917-2003), que consta de “Los cipreses creen en Dios” de 1.953, “Un millón de muertos” de 1.961 y “Ha estallado la paz” de 1.966, que intentan reconstruir el conflicto civil español. Muy distinto es el tono de la novela “Nada” de 1.945, de Carmen Laforet (1.921-2004), que en esencia es la historia moral de la incorporación al mundo adulto de una joven; sin embargo, su fondo socio-histórico presidido por la miseria, la anormalidad y el horror, así como el tono simple y directo de su estilo realista, permitieron que se la considerase emblemática de una nueva forma de narrar que la obra posterior de Laforet no ha confirmado. Hay que recordar aquí la notable labor de los escritores exiliados españoles; aquellos que en circunstancias diversas se vieron obligados a abandonar su país natal por su fidelidad republicana o por rechazo del fascismo franquista, y que siguieron desarrollando su obra fuera de España. Citemos, al menos como botón de muestra, a Francisco Ayala y a Rosa Chacel, dos excelentes narradores formados en la filosofía orteguiana y en la estética vanguardista y cuya evolución ha sido un ejemplo, a pesar del desarraigo, para otros autores. Francisco Ayala (1.906-2009) apuntaba ya desde los años treinta como el más interesante y genuino representante de la narrativa vanguardista en, por ejemplo, el libro de cuentos “Cazador en el alba” de 1.930. Después de años de silencio publicó en el exilio americano “Los usurpadores” y “La cabeza del cordero”, ambas de 1.949, centrados en el tema del ejercicio del poder e inspiradas en la guerra española. A partir de los años cincuenta Ayala ha encontrado en la ironía y el sarcasmo el tono de su producción, que pone de manifiesto la banalidad de la existencia y de la sociedad humana. En ese sentido se orienta sus novelas “Muertes de perro” de 1.958 y “El fondo del vaso” de 1.962. “El jardín de las delicias” de 1.971 sorprende por su frescura y modernidad. En un ambiente similar al de Ayala se movió Rosa Chacel (1.898-1.994), autora fundamentalmente de relatos breves hasta que ya en el exilio publicó “Memorias de Leticia Valle” en 1.945, novela en la que asistimos al paso de la adolescencia a la madurez de la protagonista por medio de su propio discurso mental. La explicación de la existencia a partir de una reflexión seria y rigurosa ha sido una de las constantes de su obra, caracterizada por la atemporalidad y la fragmentación. La mejor expresión de su arte y de sus preocupaciones la tenemos en la trilogía integrada por “Barrio de Maravillas” de 1.976, “Acrópolis” de 1.984 y “Ciencias naturales” de 1.988, donde asistimos a la incorporación a la experiencia, al mundo y a su conocimiento de un grupo de jóvenes.

Those are La Palapa, The El Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into the ever so romantic Vista Grill with those dramatic views of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course, at La Palapa you can enjoy that same view of the Los Muertos Pier all day long for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seated with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! This week, I have a special guest, Sofia Boettner, with Group La Palapa will be talking about their beautiful property, La Troza Beach Resort, south of Puerto Vallarta, actually just north of Playa Las Animas, but before we get to that conversation, let’s see what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, November 29, 2017. Last week I promised you I would talk about the Pilgrimage, the 12-day pilgrimage of our Lady de Guadalupe. The one that is going to be celebrated in Puerto Vallarta for 13 days this. Well, in Puerto Vallarta, there is this beautiful church and it serves as an icon. It is part and parcel of the landscape and the center of all the tourist brochures, everyone wants a picture of the church, the Iglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe.  And because of its name, and dedication to the Lady of Guadalupe, it has been one of the places in Mexico, besides the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City, where the faithful make the pilgrimage to honor this occasion, this event that changed Mexico, and entwined Mexico with the Catholic Church. I want to tell you about the history of the church in Puerto Vallarta, the Iglesias de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe, but before that, let me give you a little history and let me tell you the story of the miracle of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the story of Juan Diego. Just keep in mind that 10 years earlier, Hernando Cortez had just conquered Mexico City and just defeated Montezuma. And in 1523 Franciscan missionaries came ‘a evangelizing the Indian people who were living there. And, they were really good at it too and an Archdiocese of Mexico City was established in 1528. Now Juan Diego and many of his family members were among the early native Indian converts to Catholicism. He was baptized Juan Diego. He was given that name by the church. His name was some other Indian name that I cannot pronounce it I'm not even going to try it. [caption id="attachment_2023" align="alignleft" width="216"] Juan Diego[/caption] Juan Diego was baptized in 1525 along with his wife and his uncle. Now remember that Juan Diego had grown up under Aztec oppression, and the Aztecs were not really nice people. They would cut the hearts out of sacrifices while they were still alive. It was pretty gross this was a bloodthirsty civilization. It was said that over 50,000 human beings were sacrificed having their hearts cut out every year. In fact, just imagine back in 1487, before Cortez arrived when Juan Diego was just 13 years old he would have witnessed all this chaos and bloodthirsty behavior. It must have shocked the Spanish Conquistadores no end. In 1520 Cortes outlawed human sacrifice and he took the two idols out of the pyramids, cleansed the stone of all the blood, and erected a new altar. And then, Cortez along with his soldiers and father Olmedo then climb the stairs of the pyramid with the Holy Cross and images of the Virgin [caption id="attachment_2035" align="alignright" width="254"] Hernando Cortez[/caption] Mary and of Saint Christopher and upon this new altar Father Olmedo held a mass. Right there, in the place where all of those sacrifices had taken place, where all that bloodshed and tragic loss of life took place,  there took place, a Mass. A bloodless, deathless mass was held. But that didn't make the Aztecs very happy in fact it sparked all-out War. Once again Cortez had to subdue his enemy, and in August of 1521 a year later he finally was able to stop that fighting. So, now let's get back to the story of Juan Diego. Juan Diego was headed to mass and on the way to mass he would walk past Tepeyac Hill, on the outskirts of Mexico City.  And this one morning, in the early morning hours of December 9th 1531, this 57 year old Indian peasant was walking along and started to hear beautiful music and he saw a beautiful lady who called out his name. He came forward and she told him who she was. That she was the Virgin Mary the mother of Jesus, and she asked him to go to the bishop and ask the bishop to build a church right there at Tepeyac Hill, to honor her. Bishop Zumarraga was a nice guy, and when Juan Diego came to him he listened and said he would think about it. [caption id="attachment_2034" align="aligncenter" width="673"] Bishop Zumarraga[/caption] He probably didn't believe him of course and sent Juan Diego on his way. When Juan Diego went back past Tepeyac Hill and reported what the bishop had said Mary told him to try again. So the next day, although it was even harder because, well, the bishop made him wait a long, long, time. He told the bishop the story and asked him to build the church. This time the bishop said bring back a sign from Mary, to prove the story. On December 11th Juan Diego, instead of going back, was caring for his really sick uncle and his uncle asked him to bring a priest to hear his confession and to administer his final rites. Then the following day, on December 12th as Juan Diego went out again but he was a little embarrassed, so he avoided Tepeyac Hill because he was embarrassed that he kinda ditched Mother Mary the day before you know, when he was caring for his uncle. But Mary, cut him off at the pass and says hey, don't worry it's okay. It's alright, you don't have to worry your uncle is going to be fine in fact his health has been restored now please just do as I ask. Now as for this sign for the Bishop, go to the top of the hill and pick some flowers. So, Juan Diego went to the top of the hill which was dry and covered with snow and cactus, and he actually found some beautiful roses that were not familiar to Juan Diego as they weren’t even native to Mexico and actually native to Spain. Juan Diego gathered the roses up in his sash he was wearing a like a poncho. They call it a tilma. Anyway, he brought the Roses back in his Poncho, in his tilma and Mary arranged them, and then rewrapped them up again handed it to him and said now take these back to the bishop. Tell him I want my Church. And so Juan Diego went back and waited even longer this time and finally when he had a chance and another audience with the bishop. He repeated the message and opened his tilma, and out spilled these roses. The bishop not only saw the flowers but also saw the image of Mary, Our Lady de Guadalupe which had been emblazoned upon the tilma upon this guy's poncho. [caption id="attachment_2036" align="aligncenter" width="528"] Lady of Guadalupe[/caption] Bishop Zumarraga fell to his knees and he asked for forgiveness for ever doubting Juan Diego, and then he took the tilma and he laid it on the altar of his chapel. By Christmas of that year an adobe structure was built on top of Tepeyac Hill in honor of our Blessed Mother Our Lady of Guadalupe and it was dedicated in December 26th, 1531 which is the feast of Saint Stephen the Martyr. When Juan Diego saw his uncle next, his uncle had indeed recovered, and told the story of how the virgin had appeared before him and made him well. So, December 9th marks the feast day of Saint Juan Diego and December 12th the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. This event was very important in bringing more and more people, more and more of the Indians into the Catholic faith and it was the Tipping Point right then in the history of Catholicism and Mexico. [embed]https://youtu.be/h3srGgIMPX8[/embed] In Mexico City at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the faithful come from all over Mexico to make the pilgrimage to see the 400-year-old tilma, with the figure of the Virgin Mary, the Lady of Guadalupe emblazoned on it. They crawl on their knees to the basilica. At least some of them do. I have a video that shows how it’s celebrated in Mexico City, but to tell you a little about how it’s celebrated in Puerto Vallarta, I called my buddy Dee, from Poland Ohio, and Dee is as much of a Vallarta nut as I am. We met on the Trip Advisor Puerto Vallarta Forum page so we have never met in person, but following her adventures in Vallarta, I know that Dee is a believer and she loves this event, so I asked her to come on and tell us what happens during the 12 day Pilgrimage in Puerto Vallarta. So lets go to Poland Ohio and Talk with Dee. [caption id="attachment_1974" align="aligncenter" width="576"] Inglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe[/caption] Now La Iglesias de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta’s history started in the early twentieth century, The foundations of the church were started in 1903, but at the time there was already a small chapel there dedicated to Virgin Guadalupe. In 1915 father Francisco Ayala arrived and he suggested that a bigger temple than the one that had been designed, be built instead.. When Father Francisco Ayala arrived to the port in 1915, he suggested remodeling the building to resemble the design of the original Basilica of Guadalupe in Mexico City. The church was then officially promoted from a chapel to a parish. [embed]https://youtu.be/M5Ka_igVRp0[/embed] Construction stopped in 1926 during the Cristero War and resumed years after in 1929. Now I have to tell you about this War the Cristero War. I mean, I had never heard of it. Check this out…. It seems that the revolutionaries who took over after the Spanish were ousted were very distrustful of the clergy. They wrote in their constitutions limits and restrictions on the Catholic Church and religious freedoms. Most of the presidents, post-independence and revolution ignored these laws and limits, but The Plutarco Elías Calles administration (1924–28) felt its revolutionary initiatives and legal basis to pursue them were being challenged by the Catholic Church. To destroy the Church's influence over the Mexican people, anti-clerical laws were instituted, beginning a ten-year religious conflict that resulted in the death of thousands of armed civilians. On the opposing side was an armed professional military sponsored by the government. Calles’ Mexico has been characterized by some as an atheist state, and his program as being one to eradicate religion in Mexico. Calles applied the anti-clerical laws stringently throughout the country and added his own anti-clerical legislation. In June 1926 he signed the "Law for Reforming the Penal Code", known unofficially as the "Calles Law." This provided specific penalties for priests and individuals who violated the provisions of the 1917 Constitution. For instance, wearing clerical garb in public (i.e., outside Church buildings) earned a fine of 500 pesos ($250 U.S. per the historical exchange rate); a priest who criticized the government could be imprisoned for five years.  Some states enacted oppressive measures. Chihuahua enacted a law permitting only a single priest to serve the entire Catholic congregation of the state. To help enforce the law, Calles seized church property, expelled all foreign priests and closed the monasteries, convents and religious schools. The effects of the war on the Church were profound. Between 1926–34 at least 40 priests were killed. There were 4,500 priests serving the people before the rebellion, but by 1934 there were only 334 licensed by the government to serve 15 million people. The rest had been eliminated by emigration, expulsion and assassination. By 1935, 17 Mexican states had no priests at all. The rebellion eventually ended by diplomatic means brokered by U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Dwight Whitney Morrow, with financial relief and logistical assistance provided by the Knights of Columbus. On June 27, 1929, church bells rang in Mexico for the first time in almost three years. The war had claimed the lives of some 90,000 people: 56,882 on the federal side, 30,000 Cristeros, and numerous civilians and Cristeros who were killed in anti-clerical raids after the war ended. the Calles Law remained on After the resolution of hostilities, but no organized federal attempts to enforce it took place. Nonetheless, in several localities, officials continued persecution of Catholic priests based on their interpretation of the law. In 1992 the Mexican government amended the constitution by granting all religious groups legal status, conceding them limited property rights and lifting restrictions on the number of priests in the country. So how about that? Did you know about that war? Well I hadn’t. So back to the Inglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe. By 1940 the entire building was finished, except the two towers. It wasn’t until 1963 that the symbol, the crown, that has given the city its identity and blessed it, was finally added. The original crown on the church was damaged by weather and erosion and was restored in 1981. On October 9th, 1995 it fell off and was destroyed by a strong earthquake in Colima. It was replaced with a temporary fiberglass model and since then has been replaced with a crown sculptured by the famous Jaliscan Artist, Carlos Terres. http://www.dermandar.com/p/bNyXHQ Church of the Lady of Guadalupe Facebook Page Website for La Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta   Okay enough already, let’s get on with the show and get to our guest. [caption id="attachment_2010" align="aligncenter" width="1500"] La Troza, Puerto Vallarta[/caption] When I was hiking from Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas, I passed by a beautiful place. Located in a little covelet is what looked like a mini resort. I sent an email to La Troza, Beach Resort and low and behold, I got an answer from someone I already knew. It was Sofia Boettner, with Group La Palapa. Sofia [caption id="attachment_2025" align="alignright" width="225"] Sofia Boettner[/caption] was my first contact with La Palapa. When I was looking for a theme song for the show, I actually had two theme songs chosen for the show, and I sent out emails to La Palapa and Alberto Perez, and the other email to…I’m not going to tell let’s just say it was another very famous restaurant here in Vallarta who has an incredible harp player and singer. I’ll leave it at that. You can all guess. At any rate, I heard back from Sofia right away about the song Samba de Puerto Vallarta, and she said that Mr. Perez said sure, I could use it as long as I gave credit to the artist, Him, and to his restaurant. So as you know, before each episode of the show I give a shout out to the Grupo La Palapa. With that said, I hope all you listeners know that the people I interview and the tour venues and hotels and restaurants and artists and authors, I bring to the show because I like them and I want you to know about them. I don’t receive anything from them. No money, no food, no booze, no accommodations, nada! I refuse. I always insist on paying my own way so just keep that in mind as you listen to the show. Ask anyone I have had on the show. I have no agenda other than to bring you interesting guests interviews.

Our Guest today is what I call the man who knew the secrets to the universe -Francisco J. Ayala. He has had an incredible career in Biology publishing over 1,000 research papers and scientific books. That alone is a super human feet of Olympic proportions. BUT in addition he also learned the fine art of wine making when he bought a little home with a vineyard in Northern California and he self taught himself everything there is to know about wine making and is currently one of the largest producers of wine, producing over 19 million bottles a year!  When you hear his story, you won't believe your ears. He's living proof to Dream BIG! University Professor and Donald Bren Professor of Biological Sciences and Professor of Philosophy at the University of California, Irvine. Dr. Ayala is a member of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), a recipient of the 2001 National Medal of Science, and served as Chair of the Authoring Committee of Science, Evolution, and Creationism, jointly published in 2008 by the NAS and the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Ayala has received numerous awards, including the 2010 Templeton Prize for “exceptional contribution to affirming life’s spiritual dimension,” and 23 honorary degrees from universities in ten countries. He has been President and Chairman of the Board of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and President of Sigma Xi, the Scientific Research Society of the United States. Dr. Ayala has written numerous books and articles about the intersection of science and religion, including Darwin’s Gift to Science and Religion (Joseph Henry Press, 2007), Am I a Monkey? (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2010), and The Big Questions. Evolution (Quercus, 2012). He teaches classes in evolution, genetics, and the philosophy of biology, which are also the subjects of his research.

Biologist and philosopher Francisco Ayala addresses the question, Can we still retain a notion of moral conscience in the face of the findings and claims of evolutionary biology?

En está ocasión Moisés entrevista a Francisco Ayala, un empresario que tiene una carrera grande y ahora se encuentra al frente de CMP. Escucha su filosofía e ideas. The post 225 Entrevista a Francisco Ayala [CMP]. appeared first on DIXO.

Darwin is deservedly given credit for the theory of biological evolution. Most important, however, is that he discovered natural selection, the process that accounts for the adaptive organization of organisms and their features; that is, their "design.” UC Irvine professor Francisco J. Ayala, explains that the design of organisms is not intelligent, as would be expected from an engineer, but imperfect and worse. Natural selection is Darwin's gift to religion, because the dysfunctions and waste of the living world need not be attributed to the Creator, but explained as an outcome of a natural process.
