On this episode of ID the Future, Steve Laufmann critiques a recent book by Dr. Nathan H. Lents, Human Errors: A Panorama of Our Glitches, from Pointless Bones to Broken Genes. The book purports to show that so-called “design errors” in the human body prove it wasn’t designed. Laufmann describes five ways Lents’ argument is a “bizarre blend of ignorance and arrogance.” For instance, Lents often ignores something basic to engineering–the necessity of design tradeoffs.
