Sarah Chaffee and Discovery Institute biologist Ann Gauger have been conducting a multipart conversation about the cell (see here and here). In a new podcast episode of ID the Future, they now turn to the mystery of apoptosis -- cell death. <\/p>\n

It's an enigma in the light of Darwinian theory, explains Dr. Gauger. In shaping and maintaining the organism, healthy cells may in effect commit suicide, self-sacrifice, for the good of other cells and for the good of the organism. So the evolutionary formula here would not be \"survival\" but \"suicide\" of the fittest. <\/p>\n
Where is the Darwinian logic in that? But you see, evolution doesn't rule anything out, which is a big problem with the theory. <\/p>\n
