<p>Much of it may also provide evidence&#8211;scientific evidence&#8211;that God exists.</p>
<p>Recently I interviewed Dr. Stephen Meyer, director of the <a title="Discovery Institute Center for Science and Culture" href="http://www.discovery.org/csc/" target="_blank">Discovery  Institute’s  Center for  Science and Culture</a> and a founder both of  the<a title="Intelligent design" href="http://www.intelligentdesign.org/" target="_blank"> intelligent  design</a> movement and of the Discovery Institute’s Center  for Science  &amp;  Culture, intelligent design’s primary intellectual  and scientific   headquarters.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve wondered if there is scientific evidence you can point to for the existence of God, for your own certainty or to convince someone else, I invite you to listen to this <a title="Ask dr. stephen  meyer about scienfitic evidence for the existence of God" href="http://www.askaboutcreation.com/" target="_blank">Virtual  Tour with  Dr. Stephen Meyer</a>. You even get to ask Dr. Meyer a question! (Though the live event is past, questions will continue to be answered at the <a title="TrueU blog" href="http://www.trueu.org" target="_blank">TrueU.org blog</a>.)</p>
<p>This is rare access to someone who speaks all over the world and is a recognized voice in the scientific community.</p>
<p>Meyer earned his PhD in the History and Philosophy of Science from   Cambridge  University for a dissertation on the history of origin of   life biology and the methodology of the historical sciences. Previously   he worked as a geophysicist with the Atlantic Richfield Company after   earning his undergraduate degrees in Physics and Geology.</p>
<p>Dr. Meyer&#8217;s most recent book is <a title="Signature in  the Cell:DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design by Dr. Stephen  Meyer" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002C949BI?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=abundantgif0f-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B002C949BI" target="_blank"><em>Signature  in the Cel</em><em>l: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design</em></a>. Other  books he has co-written or edited two books are <a href="http://www.darwinanddesign.com/"><em>Darwinism, Design, and   Public Education</em></a> with Michigan State University Press and <em>Science   and Evidence of Design in the Universe</em> (Ignatius 2000).</p>
<p>He has also authored numerous technical articles as well as   editorials in magazines and newspapers such as <em>The Wall Street   Journal, The Los Angeles Times, The Houston Chronicle, The Chicago   Tribune, First Things</em> and <em>National Review</em>.</p>
<p>If you have a question for Dr. Meyer, ask it at <a title="Ask dr. stephen meyer about scienfitic evidence for the existence of God" href="http://www.askaboutcreation.com" target="_blank">www.askstephenmeyer.com</a>. He may answer your question in the future, and you&#8217;ll <a title="Ask dr. stephen meyer about scienfitic evidence for the existence of God" href="http://www.askstephenmeyer.com/replay.php" target="_blank">get access to the recording</a> which you can even download to listen to at your convenience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This message has to be both seen and heard, rather than read, to be grasped.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s only 4 minutes long. Click, sit back and watch, and I hope it will give you new eyes to see the gifts of today. (I&#8217;m not scowling, really&#8211;just squinting in the sun. Next time I&#8217;ll be more aware of the sun!

<p>(<strong>Little side note</strong>: This was shot 2 days ago, and when I tried to get it on this blog, something happened to the blog. In the process of trying to fix that problem, I contacted a friend. The results of that contact blessed us both, reigniting and deepening our friendship. So the &#8220;problem&#8221; of my blog being messed up was really a &#8220;disguised gift,&#8221; resulting in blessing for both of us. Remember: God is good, and at work even in our problems.)</p>
