Michael J. Behe, Biochemist, author and educator
Article Abstract:
Michael J. Behe, a professor of biochemistry at Lehigh University, Pennsylvania and an intelligent design theorist, contends that while there is much of value in Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, it fails to explain how life originated and how complex cellular systems came to be. Behe believes that such phenomena can be explained only by the intervention of an 'intelligent designer', most likely, God.
