  Those who follow this blog know what I think about this (strict evolutionary naturalism is primarily a philosophical position), but Phillip Johnson and William Provine debated the issue back in 1994 at Stanford University, and I think the exchange is worth viewing. Here’s part 1 of 11:

  Uncommon Descent — Authority: 566
  People increasingly ask me about Francis Collins’s opposition of ID and what to make of it.
