Any scale your religionist heart desires.

I gues our universe Works much like the Flagellum. It would not work unless all the Properties were present and set up exactly as is. And guided by a universal Law....a set of instructions. A set of instructions science can not ignore ever.


Irreducible complexity applies to the entire cosmos, everything is interdependent on everything else at some level, we are a unity, how could it be otherwise?

Have you seen the video? That thing, as ive come to understand, serves to propel the bacteria. therefor the comparison to a motor, and so it is called 'the flaggerar motor'.

Great.

What if take away your intelect/mind. Would you still have the same functions, Or would they be very reduced?

Or lets take way Your ability to remember. How would your day be, would you be able to be active on this site?

Well, it sure would not be like how we oberve it today. We might not even be present to have a argument about it

And they can also work as something else. Such as exporting proteins.

This explains it

That's IC debunked. Again.

Fair enough, so you ,way back, have lineage with mice, ants, birds, horses, seems credible.

Not only is that true, but we also share about 50% DNA with bananas and about 25% with rice. It's amazing how things change over millions and billions of years right?

Take away my mind and I'd still be a person, just a dead person.

Take away my memory and I'd still be a person, just one who can't remember.

What is your obsession with people seeing your video? We've all heard the IC argument before. You aren't pushing any new groundbreaking ideas here. This is an old hat argument that has been done to death here and just about any spot on the internet that discusses this topic. I know the motor argument. It is ridiculous. Humans invented motors for a specific purpose. Cows weren't invented to go moo and produce milk for human consumption.

I'm wondering if those arguing for IC fully understand what it is.

It's almost like the op found a video and went "YAY! God!"

You tell us. Are people kept alive on life support or those suffering from dementia still humans?

The OP already admitted that he was discarding parts of evolutionary theory to pitch his argument on page 1. Thus what you just said is exactly what I expected of him. When you start off by willingly strawmaning evolution, you've already lost the argument.

True.

But on the previous page, he agrees evolution occurs (the bacteria experiment video).

It's either IC or evolution. You really can't have both.

well you questioned why we refer to it as a motor, and so i explained it to you. You required explaining, so i figured maybe you hadnt seen the video.

I know why we refer to it as a motor. I never questioned that. I explained why IC isn't a valid theory and why it isn't a logically sound argument to compare the development process of a machine to the development process of a lifeform.

This just proves you don't know what IC is lol.

Thanks for playing. I'm sure there's a special participation medal somewhere for you.
