See, this is the problem when you start off a conversation about complexity without ever defining what you think it is, or what you'd expect to see when an organism becomes more or less complex; you've begun in a vague and unfalsifiable place, and a less charitable part of me wants to say that now you're shifting the goalposts to retract your claim away from whatever rebuttals we bring to bear. I don't think that's what's happening, but it's damn close to it, unfortunately; you're leaving us groping in the dark about what you're actually discussing, it seems.

If my understanding is vague that's why I am asking the question in the first place! I am not trying to shift any goalposts and was only trying to get my question across. If we don't ask questions from people who may have more knowledge how do we learn?
It's not immoral to eat meat, abort a fetus or love someone of the same sex...I think that about covers it
