On this episode of ID the Future, <\/strong>Rice University synthetic organic chemist and inventor James M. Tour continues his conversation with Stephen C. Meyer, director of the Center for Science and Culture. In this third of three episodes featuring the two researchers, Tour draws from questions sent in by listeners of his own podcast. These include questions about the multiverse, quantum cosmology, the possibility \u2014 and theological implications \u2014 of life on other planets, the Big Bang, and what intelligent design thinking has to say about viruses and bacteria. The episode is excerpted from an extended interview from Tour\u2019s excellent new video series The Science & Faith Podcast: Follow the Evidence<\/a>. There you will find the full Meyer interview in video form as well as episodes featuring Henry F. Schaeffer III, John Lennox, and others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On this episode of ID the Future, Rice University synthetic organic chemist and inventor James M.
