Career

Richards is a former faculty member at Biola University, where he taught apologetics.[7] He worked for the Acton Institute before becoming Assistant Research Professor in the School of Business and Economics at the Catholic University of America[5] and executive editor of The Stream.

Richards is the author of numerous scholarly and popular articles as well as four books, including The Untamed God and The Privileged Planet. Richards has been known for his intelligent design advocacy since 1996. The Privileged Planet was co-authored with astronomer and fellow CSC Senior Fellow Guillermo Gonzalez.

Richards was a fellow at the Institute for Faith, Work & Economics and the Program Director of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture (CSC).[8][9] He was the first fellow at the Discovery Institute to confirm the genuineness of the Wedge document.[10] Science organizations then paid attention to the Institute after the document was published online, but Richards wrote "that the mission statement and goals had been posted on the CRSC's website since 1996."[11] Richards has expressed skepticism of global warming.[12][13]

In January 2008 at Stanford University Jay Richards had a debate with a leading atheist, Christopher Hitchens, on the topic: Atheism vs. Theism and The Scientific Evidence of Intelligent Design. It was moderated by Ben Stein. The debate led up to the release of Ben Stein's movie No Intelligence Allowed.
