The cell is what biochemist Michael Behe has called evolution’s
“black box,” its spectacularly complex, superbly designed
contents unknown to Charles Darwin. When the box was opened by
modern science, it was a turning-point moment for the
articulation of the modern theory of intelligent design. A
revolution followed, fundamentally challenging how scientists
discuss the history of life. Join Dr. Behe as he explores the
mysteries of the cell, the limits of evolution, and how the cell
points to intelligent design. This show is a re-edited
compilation of the first five episodes of Behe's Secrets of the
Cell YouTube series. Now you can watch the first five episodes
all at once!

Biochemist Joe Deweese explains the topoisomerase molecular
machine and answers questions submitted by viewers from around
the world. The interview is conducted by Casey Luskin, Associate
Director of the Center for Science and Culture at Discovery
Institute.
Topoisomerase II is an extremely important enzyme in your cells
that is designed to untangle knots and supercoils in DNA strands
that arise during replication and transcription. It does this by
grabbing two tangled DNA segments, holding one steady while it
breaks the other segment in two, and then passing the first
segment through the break. The second segment is then
reconnected, and the two DNA segments are released, having been
successfully untangled. Without topoisomerases, chromosomes
would become an impossible mess, making DNA replication,
transcription, and cell duplication impossible.
The carefully orchestrated untangling activity of topoisomerase
II doesn’t happen by accident. This enzyme is a molecular
machine that only works because its amino acid sequence is
highly specified to provide a special shape and structure
necessary for its function. In other words, topoisomerase
enzymes contain high levels of complex and specified
information—a hallmark of intelligent design.
Joe Deweese received his BS in Biochemistry from Freed-Hardeman
University and his PhD in Biochemistry from Vanderbilt
University. For twelve years, he taught in the Department of
Pharmaceutical Sciences at Lipscomb University. His teaching
included biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, anticancer
pharmacology, and cellular physiology. Deweese is starting a new
role in August, 2021 as Professor of Biochemistry and Director
of Undergraduate Research at Freed-Hardeman University. His
research interests include characterizing the mechanism of
anti-cancer agents, especially those that target topoisomerase
II. Recent studies from his lab have focused on etoposide
metabolites, thiosemicarbazones, and natural product
derivatives. Currently, his work is focused on examining the
differences between the two versions of topoisomerase II found
in humans. He and his wife, Liz, have two children.
Casey Luskin is a geologist and an attorney with graduate
degrees in science and law, giving him expertise in both the
scientific and legal dimensions of the debate over evolution. He
earned his PhD in Geology from the University of Johannesburg,
and BS and MS degrees in Earth Sciences from the University of
California, San Diego, where he studied evolution extensively at
both the graduate and undergraduate levels. His law degree is
from the University of San Diego, where he focused his studies
on First Amendment law, education law, and environmental law.

Is the belief that scientists have created a cell in a lab
taking on aspects of a religious conviction? Dr. James Tour, a
renowned scientist, delves into the fascinating interplay
between faith and the origin of life debates. He navigates the
complex terrain of being a scientist while holding beliefs in a
God and explores how methodological naturalism fits into this
equation. Dr. Tour's critique of origin of life media hype
prompts intriguing questions about the current state of
scientific understanding. How does his outspoken stance impact
the ongoing discourse surrounding the origins of life?

Why Hands-On Chemistry Experiments Can’t Simulate A Prebiotic

Prebiotic Earth (Ep. 4)[/center]

When scientists claim they have simulated early earth chemistry
to create life from non-life, are they being honest? Enjoy the
fourth and final installment in a series of conversations
between philosopher of science Dr. Stephen Meyer, author of
Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent
Design, and [glow=teal,2,300]👨‍🔬🔬
@DrJamesTour 🕊️[/glow], a world-leading synthetic
organic chemist at Rice University.
In Part 4, Meyer and Tour evaluate the work of chemist Bruce
Lipshutz; specifically his work designing surfactant molecules
that enable amide/peptide bonds. By itself, Lipshutz’s work
developing synthetic techniques for doing chemistry in water is
interesting and has value. But for those tempted to think that
his work validates chemical evolutionary theories of the origin
of life, Tour has bad news. Peptides don’t form in aqueous
environments like water. A realistic prebiotic environment would
not be capable of producing the reactions necessary to form
proteins. And Lipshutz acknowledges this. In their conversation,
Tour and Meyer discuss how Lipshutz applies hands-on chemistry
that bears no resemblance to the likely conditions of a
prebiotic earth. If anything, the work of Lipshutz and others in
origin of life research is actually simulating the need for
intelligent agency to move simple chemicals in a life-friendly
direction. Says Meyer, “Even the modest movement they get
towards life seems to be intelligently designed at each step of
the way, and even the vocabulary will sometimes reveal that:
ribozyme engineer, designer surfactants. Very curious!”
CONTEXT
These videos were recorded in Nov and Dec 2022. Dr. Tour has
recently been engaged in a series of back-and-forth responses to
attacks on his work from YouTube science communicator Dave
Farina. This has given Tour a new opportunity to critique
experts in the field of abiogenesis and allows an interested
public to better evaluate both sides of the argument.
Philosopher of science Dr. Stephen Meyer hosts these engaging
conversations. Meyer is author of the 2009 book Signature in the
Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design, which
explores theories attempting to explain the origin of the first
life. So Meyer is the perfect candidate to unpack Tour’s
expertise and draw out key insights.
