A Faithful Knowledge
A Conversation with Stephen C. Meyer
Stephen Meyer is the director of the Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture and one of the great minds behind intelligent design-based scientific inquiry and research. He is the author of Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design (2009), which raised the question of the biological information necessary to produce the first life; Darwin’s Doubt: The Explosive Origin of Animal Life and the Case for Intelligent Design (2013), which expanded the scope of the case for ID to encompass the history of all life on earth; and Return of the God Hypothesis: Three Scientific Discoveries Revealing the Mind Behind the Universe (2021), which effectively expanded the scope of the argument to the entire universe. Terrell Clemmons, who interviews him here, is the deputy editor of Salvo.
You closed Return of the God Hypothesis with a narration of your philosophical journey about the big questions of life, primarily the God question. How did you come to faith?
