Beyond Expelled: Nancy Pearcey Goes to Niceville

Northwest Florida Daily News staff reporter Rachel Kyler writes an informative, balanced story here about Nancy Pearcey's recent lecture, "Beyond Expelled." Pearcey delivered the address to nearly 800 people at Okaloosa-Walton College at Niceville, Florida (no, that's the town's real name).

The presentation dealt with the philosophical foundations of Darwinism, its effects on and implications for American culture, and the new challenges raised to traditional Darwinian theories by Intelligent Design. Good stuff. And there's an interesting video excerpt of Pearcey's lecture as a bonus. It's all right here.
