Could something as simple as a toxin be the death knell of evolution? That’s the question today for Kevin’s guest Dr. Olen Brown. Dr. Brown is an expert in toxicology and has an impressive resume of of degrees and studies. If anyone is qualified to speak about how unscientific evolution is, it’s him.

Today on Educate For Life, learn how toxins, enzymes, and even ATP, a simple cellular fuel, provide mountains of evidence that evolution is an impossibility. To learn more about Dr. Brown and his work check out his website and his CV.
