Irreducible Complexity.

RE: Irreducible Complexity.
If you look back you will find I never made an objection of the picture being upside down, just the retina being inside-out, which I still maintain is not a smart way of doing things.

I played a trick on him last week when we were debating the flagellar motor. I had a big image on the computer screen of it and said to him: 'what's that?' He thought it was some kind of aeroplane engine or something like that.


This is actually more a case supporting the notion that intuitively things do look designed.

Just maybe, and I've said it many times, the fact it conforms to a high spec, that would make a mazda engineer blush, is because it is actually designed. My thinking and reasoning seem 'set' in seeing things this way. (Just as I would always arrive at the same conclusion if I looked up at the 'shapes' on the side of Mount Rushmore and concluded they were fashioned by some intelligence as opposed to the weather etching them over thousands of years.) I'm prepared to say that evolution takes place but I can't fathom it happening without guidance.

That guideance is there, it's called natural selection.

Sure, go right ahead. Shall we move on to the Urethra and Prostate after that? Smile
