Back to molecular machines. They are irreducibly complex, meaning if one part fails the entire system is degraded or fails to operate. We haven't really touched on irreducible complexity much. We discussed CSI (Complex Specific Information) and molecular machines but not irreducibly complex machines.

Does not totally fit the idea.  Only in that article you cited does it fit the idea.  I disagree with that article and so does the CIA World Factbook.

This is not embarrassing crushing atheists in a debate about DNA.

All you're doing is giving Christianity a bad name. Congratulations on that.

Not trying to do that.  I hope not.

The molecular machines are irreducibly complex.  Take away a part and the system fails or is degraded.

-and that;s the tragic part.

Repeating the claim doesn;t make it twice as true or any less false....so?

So much for that "free will" shit.

I think it's a combination of both Astreja.  He has His plan and His will be done but we also have free will to make decisions.  We are not robots.
I don't think it's possible to have free will coexisting with a god's plan unless the god is willing and able to change that plan in response to what mortals decide.

I think we need to figure out who filled this poor fuckers head with -all- the trash.  That person must hate him.

I'm not sure what your point was originally.

Yes, I believe He is willing and able to adjust parts of His plan based on what humans do (prayers,...) without changing anything in the Bible.
