On April 28, I will be lecturing at the national meeting of the Philadelphia Society in Philadelphia. My lecture will be entitled "Darwinian Conservatism as the New Fusionism." I will elaborate some points I have made on this blog about how Darwinian conservatism could support a fusion of libertarian and traditionalist principles in conservative thought. John West will be on the same program to debate me.
On May 3, West and I will continue our debate at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, D.C. On the side of anti-Darwinism, West will be joined by George Gilder. On the side of defending Darwinism, I will be joined by John Derbyshire.
I'm eagerly anticipating the AEI debate especially. It's deeply satisfying to see the underlying motivations of the ID movement (saving society from destruction caused by a lack of belief in a supernatural Authority Figure) finally starting to be revealed & challenged in prominent venues.
ReplyDeleteDo you know if CSPAN will be covering at least the AEI debate?
