Episode Title:
PhD in Evolutionary Biology Says DNA Replication Points to Design ft. Dr. Jonathan McLatchie
Episode Summary:
Is DNA replication an accident of evolution—or evidence of intelligent design? Dr. Jonathan McLatchie, a biologist and professor, joins Allan CP to reveal how the complexity of DNA replication poses a serious challenge to unguided evolutionary theory. From irreducible complexity to the encoded information in our cells, this episode builds a strong case for design in nature.
Episode Notes:
In this episode of The Science Dilemma, we sit down with Dr. Jonathan McLatchie—PhD in cell biology, writer, debater, and Christian apologist—to explore one of biology’s most astonishing processes: DNA replication.
Together, we discuss:
- Why DNA contains a language-like code
- What irreducible complexity really means
- Why DNA replication systems can’t be explained by evolution alone
- The shocking improbability of functional proteins forming by chance
- How Bayesian reasoning points to intelligent design
- What this means for science, faith, and worldview
Dr. McLatchie also shares practical next steps for those wrestling with doubt and offers access to resources through his ministry, TalkAboutDoubts.com.
