The tip of the ice berg

Was there a scientific rebuttal of irreducible complexity? I'm not trying to make a point I'm just curious.

Only that it has not been shown to exist in natural objects.

If you had them in your heart, you wouldn't need them on the lawns.

But putting them on the lawns brings out the mission fields.

Can you think of any better bait?

Several. For example here.

 

[AV1611VET]

Oh okay the authors of the infamous Wedge Document

Here's another one; somewhat like it:

Guess where I drove by last night.

 

[AV1611VET]

As far as I am aware, the Ten Commandments were only taken off one courthouse lawn,

Keep looking.

Something that didn't make sense.

Like you can remove the platform and make it a doorstop or something.

 

[ottawak]

Keep looking.

You can post more examples if you want, but the only motive to insist on a monument to the Ten Commandments in front of a public building is political, not religious.

Uh-huh.

And I'm Genghis Khan.

Several. For example here.

When the SS cancelled its techno-blab, after taking two billion dollars from us, you'd think they could have MacGuyvered some of their junk into something else.

I mean, they can refute irreducible complexity by MacGuyvering a mouse trap into its component parts into something else, but can't find something to do with a two billion dollar piece of junk sitting in Texas?

Steven Weinberg, a Nobel laureate in Physics, places the cancellation of the SSC in the context of a bigger national and global socio-economic crisis, including a general crisis in funding for science research and for the provision of adequate education, healthcare, transportation and communication infrastructure, and criminal justice and law enforcement.

That's not news; you've been Genghis Khan for years.

Not by choice.

Several. For example here.

I have not seen one addressing flagellum

 

[Bungle_Bear]

I have not seen one addressing flagellum

Did you ask for one?

 

[BPPLEE]

Did you ask for one?

Thanks for the link. It doesn't address irreducible complexity though

What are you whinging about now, Genghis?

Huh? I gave you link that addresses irreducible complexity, then you asked for a link explaining flagella - which I provided. Perhaps you need to ask yourself why the flagella explanation doesn't address irreducible complexity. Try this - if the flagellum is not irreducibly complex, any explanation of the flagellum doesn't need to address irreducible complexity.

I'm comparing a mousetrap to the Superconducting Super Collider.

Submit this doorstop to irreducible complexity, like they do the mousetrap, and let me know how that works out.

Whoosh!
