In this video, I summarize and critically review Randy Guliuzza's (Institute for Creation Research president) article, "Why Biology Needs a Theory of Biological Design—Part 4." I explore the core arguments behind Guliuzza’s proposed Theory of Biological Design (TOBD) and how it contrasts with Darwinian selectionism. As a professional biologist and Christian, I ask if TOBD offers a viable alternative to evolutionary theory by discussing its scientific validity, theological implications, and potential impact on biology.
