Robert George, the author of "The Clash of Orthodoxies: Law, Religion and Morality in Crisis" is on CSPAN2, Book TV, now and will be repeated tonite at 3 AM (Daylight Eastern).

Dr. George (I think he's a lawyer and teaches philosophy) has been involved in the President's Council on Bioethics and debating Cloning and Embryonic Stem cell research with Ronald Bailey on Reason Magazine.

He is very clear and informative.

Prof. Robert George is a kind man that I have spoken to a few times. He is quite helpful to conservative politics, and provides a wonderful intellectual foundation for our beliefs.
