The only Christian in hell?
Will Francis Collins be the only Christian in hell? Stephen Colbert thinks so, sort of. Here’s a clip (two actually) from the Colbert Report:
Collins will be a featured speaker at Following Christ 08. He is currently the head of the Human Genome project, a position he will step down from in August. He is best known among evangelical Christians for his recent book, The Language of God, which seeks to bridge the perceived gap between science and Christian faith.
As you can tell from these clips, Collins has is good humored and pretty wise. A combination that we think will help him be a huge contributor to the conference.

Collins’ book was by far the best I’ve read on the sensitive subject of evolution. It is written in such a way that the science can be understood by the “lay person” and it is explained with the understanding of the “concerns” that many people of faith have. Prior to reading his book I was partial to the Intelligent Design movement. But after reading it I realized that I had misunderstood much of ID was was ill informed on a lot of issues. I feel as if I’ve been converted…
