I was in Warsaw, Poland, for a conference on intelligent design, “Faith and Science in the Age of Secularization.” Capping off the conference, I had a debate/conversation with a local philosopher of science (former chemist), Professor Wojciech Sady. I spoke in English, he in Polish. An English version of the debate, with Professor Sady’s words translated into English, is now available on YouTube:

The title of the debate was: “Is There a Place for Teleological Explanations in Science?” Some readers may find it of interest. Our ID friend in Poland, Grzegorz Malec, introduced us.
