Introducing Prof. Behe
"Ten years ago our speaker tonight, Michael Behe, professor of biochemistry at Lehigh University, rocked the academic world and rocked the scientific establishment by publishing Darwin's Black Box. That book became an international bestseller and since its appearance, has been criticized by those who don't want paradigms changed," opened Rev. Ronald Tacelli, S.J., director of the Boston College philosophy department and host of Wednesday's lecture "The Case against Darwin," which took place in Robsham Theater.
"I though that it was appropriate to invite the 'biggest fool and liar' to expose himself for what he is," continued Tacelli, referencing Brown University professor Ken Miller's lecture on evolution from last semester, during which Miller called supporters of intelligent design "fools and liars."
Reported in The Heights (reg. req.) the independent student newspaper of Boston College.
Apparently, it all went downhill from there.
