For your Friday afternoon listening pleasure, here’s the latest episode of ID the Future, in which our colleague David Boze talks with radio commentator Dennis Prager. The subject? Prager’s recent column explaining the link between evolutionary thinking and the temptation to big-government tyranny.
The same folks who used to tell us all human behavior is determined by economics now say it’s all determined by evolution. Darwinism, Prager says, has displaced Marxism as the animating ideology of those who want to justify state coercion — all, of course, for our own good. This is a profound 13-minute conversation that’s worth your time.
