Episode description

In this episode we go into depth about a recent MIT Technology Review article on human genes being inserted and spliced into monkeys, with hopes of making them smarter, as part of Darwinian selection. This prompted a discussion about creation, progressivism, evolution, and all the ethics and questions that fall in between.
