If you are studying this controversial trial in your school you might want to log on to this free lecture. Interesting that it has been 80 years and the arguments are just as fresh today as they were then. Have fun homeschooling!--Tabbi

God, Darwin, and Design: Lessons from the Dover Monkey Trial

by Dr. Kenneth Miller
Professor of Biology, Brown University

What is the Lecture About?

It has been 80 years since the Scopes Monkey Trial, but the debate between science and religion has never been as heated as it is now. Recent efforts to introduce "intelligent design" into science classes will likely lead to a major Supreme Court ruling on the issue. Kenneth R. Miller, a professor of biology at Brown University, is a preeminent evolutionary scientist—and the author of the most widely used high school biology textbook in America. He is perfectly suited to address this controversial topic on many fronts.
