Episode description

Dr. Woodward interviews Marcus R. Ross, an American vertebrate paleontologist, with the focus on his capturing of national attention (and a front page story in the New York Times) upon receiving his Ph.D. from the University of Rhode Island. What controversy catapulted him to the front page? It boils down to one unusual fact: Even though his highly skeptical views on evolution were at odds with the pro-evolution convictions of his professors (who supervised his doctoral studies), he was granted his Ph.D. with no hesitation whatsoever. Dr. Ross explains this fascinating journey in the interview. He is an Assistant Professor of Geology in the Biology/Chemistry Department at Liberty University, where has also helps direct the Center for Creation Studies.
