I heard Michael Medved, a conservative Jew, interview him on the local AM radio station that airs most of the conservative shows. I found Collins position absurd, but typical of other way-too-heavily-acclaimed so-called "theistic evolutionists".

If you want to read up on some brilliant REAL SCIENTISTS who are all a welcome alternative to Collins, and Hugh Ross, and other so-called theistic evolutionists, I'd take a look at:
