If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down.

The title of the posted article contradicts your posted definition.

Your murder scene analogy breaks down as well. Since at this point irreducible complexity still has no meaning, according to the posted article.

My definition - WHAT are you talking about? Those are the words of Charles Darwin.

Title of this thread: "Irreducible Complexity is an Obstacle to Darwinism Even if Parts of a System have other Functions"

Darwin's words: "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down."

Please explain the contradiction - it seems to only exist in your mind.

Your murder scene analogy breaks down as well.

Really? How?

Darwin defines the term. This article defines the term. Seems your head is inserted firmly in the sand (although some may substitute a bodily orifice for the sand).
