It proves design in many respects because of a paradox.
The only thing it proves is that you don't recognize the logical fallacies in your own arguments. Which explains a lot of things.

They have a common fantasy, and a common inability.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Of course there is. It's bullshit invented by religitards to prop up their impotent god.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_complexity
Quote:In the 2005 Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial, Behe gave testimony on the subject of irreducible complexity. The court found that "Professor Behe's claim for irreducible complexity has been refuted in peer-reviewed research papers and has been rejected by the scientific community at large
Put down the koran and go read some science books.

No example of 'irreducible complexity' presented so far has been able to stand up to reasonable scrutiny. So far, a possible evolutionary path has been elucidated for every single so-called 'irreducibly complex' feature of a living organism. Not only is there a solution within the framework of biology and organic chemistry, we have a good idea of what that solution is.
There are Muslims who accept evolution, you know. There is nothing in your religion that requires you to take the Genesis story so literally. The 'people of the book' have a wonderful metaphor for evolution at their fingertips (God raised humans from dust being a metaphor for evolution from microbes to everything else, including humans), but too many of them would rather reject science rather than try to reconcile it with their religious beliefs.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

There is the problem that evolution can discard things. So it may be that every part is needed now but doesn't mean that there werent extra bits that evolution discarded.
Evolution is not one way.

@MA
That's the tragic part of the whole bit. If we wanted to take magic book as metaphor, theres no need to deny the reality of biology...and if we wanted to take magic book literally..all of this biology is just plain wrong...including those bits required to make ID about something in the first place.
Genes? LOLno, god didn;t use genes to create us, he used a magic spell. Heredity? LOLno...the colored stick theory of animal husbandry.

Alright, if you are confident, why not a set up a one on one debate on this with me?
I don't mind changing my stance if proven wrong.
