On this episode of ID the Future from the archive, host Eric Metaxas interviews biologist and professor Dr. Douglas Axe on The Eric Metaxas show. Axe is the Maxwell Professor of Molecular Biology at Biola University, the founding Director of Biologic Institute, the founding Editor of BIO-Complexity, and the author of Undeniable: How Biology Confirms Our Intuition That Life is Designed. Axe shares how he lost his research position in Cambridge during a season of political controversy over Darwinian evolution in the U.K. Axe's research at Cambridge led him to cast doubt on the prevailing ideas about protein evolution, showing that proteins are actually more fragile and less flexible than many claim. In their discussion of his book Undeniable, Axe explains that science is a human enterprise: "Science is not the dispassionate, purely rational, perfect discipline that some people still seem to think it is," says Axe. "The human part of science brings all the baggage and complexity that humans bring to every other discipline in science, and how could it be otherwise." This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation.
