Wilde, it is an attempt to argue that science supports Intelligent Design.
"Meyer shows how the digital code in DNA points powerfully to a designing intelligence behind the origin of life."

Re: Non-Fiction Suggestions for our July, August and September 2011 discussion
This thread is being locked. We're going to have to skip a month and start the next Non-Fiction discussion in August instead of July.
Here is why...
I suggested Elie Wiesel's 3 books to be read as a group concurrently. Dawn seconded this and then appeared to have retracted her support based on these books being heavy reading during the summer. Murrill said he/she would probably participate, but nobody else did...and I rarely participate more than a post or two. Administering BookTalk.org unfortunately takes most of my time to the point where I cannot join the actual book discussions. President Camacho added the feedback that he thinks this is a morbid topic and he wouldn't be interested in participating in this particular book discussion. Nobody else left feedback so without a crystal ball I cannot gauge the interest level in Wiesel's books.
Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua was suggested by Wilde and supported by giselle. Nobody else chimed in so we have only 2 people appearing interested in this book.
And then we have 2 more book suggestions with no feedback from anyone else on them.
So this book suggestion thread is being locked and we will have to start fresh. Maybe it is because it is summer and people are busy, but this level of participation is frustrating especially when our forums are so active. I guess people don't want to commit during the summer to participating in an actual book discussion. But we are a book discussion community.
