Why the Human Body Outperforms the Best Human Engineering

Stuart Burgess
May 25, 2026}

Designing an Olympic bicycle requires the very best materials and lubricants. And the smallest of engineering choices can make the difference between winning and losing the race. On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid speaks with award-winning British engineer and designer Stuart Burgess. This time, the topic is his engineering work as lead transmission designer on the Olympic bikes used by Team Great Britain in the last three summer Olympic Games. Burgess reveals that the human body boasts a level of engineering that far surpasses the best things humans have been able to engineer. This optimal design in living things points to intelligent design instead of an evolutionary origin for life.

If a friend, family member, or colleague lodges an objection to the fine-tuning argument for intelligent design, are you ready to respond? On this installment of ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid concludes his two-part conversation with philosopher and intelligent design scholar Peter S. Williams. Williams reviews the most common objections to the fine-tuning arguments for intelligent design and explains why each proposal falls short scientifically, logically, and philosophically. Who knew there were over 20 objections to fine-tuning? Even host McDiarmid admits he didn’t know about all of them! The more well-versed you are in responding to objections, the better you’ll be able to stand your ground and offer substantive arguments when you hear them pop up. In Part 1, Williams and McDiarmid reviewing two groups of objections: the “fine-tuning isn’t real” set and the “fine-tuning is real but no big deal” group. Today, Williams unpacks several objections related to the multiverse and shows why each one fails to adequately explain the fine-tuning evidence. This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation.

Tell-Tale Signs of Bogus Science about the Origin of Life

Long Story Short}

Scientific claims about the origin of life are often complex—so how can you tell if they’re right or wrong? Even if you’re not an expert, there are tell-tale signs to identify scientific claims that are dubious. Are the scientists unbiased? Do they exclude possible explanations before the investigation even begins? Do the scientists make assumptions? Are the claims being made reasonable or exaggerated? It turns out origin of life research regularly makes all these mistakes.
