It would not be evidence of anything and nothing in science is ever “proven”. Once again you have displayed your ignorance of what science is.

Moreover there is no positive evidence of irreducible complexity. It is an appeal to ignorance. I.D.’ers don't know or cannot explain (or more likely don't want to accept the explanation) how this structure could arise by natural selection of genetic variation; thus it must have been “designed” by the “designer”.

In what way is that not a “designer of the gaps” argument?

nothing in science is ever “proven”.

A very convenient philosophical principle for a pseudo-scientist to espouse, especially if he has no intention of backing up his stories with proof in the first place.

I may be off FR completely for a couple of days, and will likely respond to you gentlemen over the weekend.

Have a nice week.
