Phillip E. Johnson
Phillip E. Johnson is a former Law Professor and is one of the leading members of the Intelligent Design movement. He has done much to help these ideas gain a wider hearing worldwide, despite an absence of any formal qualification in the relevant scientific field. Johnson is the author of several books on evolution, philosophical naturalism, and other cultural issues and speaks extensively around the country. Johnsonâs views on evolution are not congruent with those of the biological science community.
Johnson recieved the 2004 William Wilberforce Award a recognition of an individual who has made a difference in the face of formidable societal problems and injustices. The award is given in honor of William Wilberforce, an eighteenth century British parliamentarian who stood against his party in his campaign to abolish the slave trade and honor the basic human right to life.
