Why Darwin Matters: The Case Against Intelligent Design (2006)

by Michael Shermer

The author is a former creationist.

Just as some ex-smokers become rabid anti-smokers, the author had become quite the anti-creationist.

The author points out that intelligent design is just creationism in another guise.

Raises an interesting question: who designed the designer?

A good overview in less than 200 pages.

I thought creationism and intelligent design were basically the same position.

Can they be separated?

I don't get it, I guess.

It does tend to get confusing at times.
