Sure, if the facts are as documented in the article you quoted, why bring up irreducible complexity at all? Even your own author says it's of no use to intelligent design.
All i care about in that article I posted was the definition. I don't care about anything else in that article. Irreducible complexity is of use to intelligent design. These molecular machines are so complex and specified that if one part of a machine fails the entire system fails. I am sure they have redundancies built in but the point is these machines are designed for sure.

She was a good poster. Sucks she got banned. I wonder what she did to get banned. If a moderator sees this if they could PM me I would appreciate it? It must have been posting those videos but she stopped when she was told to.

She was an awful poster and i'm happy she's gone . As for why Tibs answered this in the peanuts gallery and his word is final

Not well he didn't.
Again, does anyone know why Ev was banned? Was it because of those videos she posted?

Everena was caught unaware by the daylight and turned to stone. Confirming the suspicions of her trollness.

Oh, I see. I thought that could be the case but wasn't sure.

You think that is what she was banned for is trolling?

An argument against the existence of CDFGod god by way of intelligent design.
First, my definition.
Intelligence is a force, F, that acts so as to maximize future freedom of action. It acts to maximize future freedom of action, or keep options open, with some strength T, with the diversity of possible accessible futures, S up to some future time horizon, τ.
F = T ∇ S
Here are my assumptions.
1. Design is only explicable in terms of intelligence.
2. We are designed.
3. CDFgod is asserted to be the existent intelligence(1) responsible for our design(2).
4. A necessary property of CDFgod's existence (3) is that our design (2) is explained by it's intelligence (1)
Here are my assertions. Evolutionary processes are just such a force F. They act to maximize future freedom of action, or keep options open, with the strength T of replication, and the diversity of possible accessible futures S of modification, up to the future time horizon t in which no further evolutionary processes are possible.
Now, my inference. Because we have been designed, and because the intelligence responsible for that design is evolutionary process, our design is explained by an intelligence other than CDFgods....ergo it lacks a necessary property of it's existence, and so...does not exist.
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!

She was a psychiatric case, but no one who hears of miracle of Christianity would surprised by Christians seeking validation in mental illness.

I wasn't really following this thread, but I thought her banning was odd. I suppose one doesn't have to be causing any harm to be trolling, but what I saw of her, she operated on the borderline, pretty much kept to this one thread, and was insulting but not solely insulting. I don't have access to the staff's deliberations, but given what little I know, I wouldn't have voted to take disciplinary action, or would have advocated a less severe disciplinary action. But then, I've been ignoring this thread for some time. I may not have all the facts. Matter of fact, I'm sure I don't have all the facts. Troll or not, she seemed harmless enough, and people liked to engage with her.

The Lord used some evolutionary processes but not common ancestry. That is the problem with your equation.

She was not. It is not funny to laugh at psychiatric patients as well.

That's great to hear from you. Yeah, I don't think she was that bad in this thread either. At one point she posted a bunch of videos to get to 1000 pages quicker and someone called it spamming. Not sure if that is what it was about or not.
