Irreducible complexity is just one aspect of why evolution is bull, but there are many more, hence a separate option for generality.

Serious study of evolutionary biology doesn't really leave you with much that you can call "irreducible complexity." Evolutionary researchers have provided explanations for the development of the eye, the wing, and even the move from unicellular to multicellular as well as the development of eukaryotes.

Parakeet, have you ever studied botany? If you truly believe that plants in their present form were specifically created in their exact present form, you believe in a much weaker God than I do. The several flaws in plant anatomy convince me that they are the result of a historical process, which does not create perfect organisms to perfectly fit their environment, but rather improvises and co-opts existing structures as well as possible to meet new needs. The same can be said of much of human anatomy- why do we have an appendix? Why does our mesentery attach at the spine rather than to the rib cage? Evolutionists can answer these questions- you can not unless you admit either fallibility or malice on the part of God, which neither of us would accept.


Enough strawmen! I accept evolution, can you comprehend that?!

No, I can not comprehend that. You said yesterday that evolution is bull, and today claim to accept evolution. Are you just trolling, or are you actually an idiot? Also, feel free to point out any strawmen I have constructed.


I accept evolution as the "time rate of change of allele frequency" which is fairly factual. I don't accept MACRO-evolution, because it is bull. As for ABIOGENESIS not being part of the macro-evolutionary storyline please read DR Sarfati's posts here: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=2891265643&topic=5228&post=19715#post19715
