Evolutionary Biologist-Creationist, Dr. Elisabet Sahtouris Resists the Non-Living Universe Assumption

(PRLEAP.COM) Del Mar, CA, October 17, 2007 – Join host Alex Tsakiris when he interviews noted biologist and author Dr. Elisabet Sahtouris. During the 40-minute interview Sahtouris examines why scientists should be skeptical of their assumption that the universe is non-living:

“… the fundamental belief in Western science is that this is a non-living universe. No one has ever proved this. I don’t think anyone could prove it. It is an assumption. If I say I want to build a science based on the assumption this is a living universe scientists will say – prove it. But, they don’t have to prove their fundamental assumption that this is a non-living universe. Western science has developed the only culture in history, I think, that has developed the concept of non-life.”

Dr. Sahtouris also explains how our outdated hierarchical models of biology have given way to holarchical models, and how the same transformation is occurring in many of our social and political systems.
