[I asked you for a *conclusive* demonstration of "irreducibly complex biochemical systems".]

Very little in science is "conclusive."

Is there any special reason you failed to acknowledge that I then went on to show that Behe's examples fail even when we drop the "conclusive" requirement? Shouldn't you either attempt to defend his examples, or be intellectually honest enough to withdraw them as support for your claim?

By focusing only on the "conclusive" issue when that wasn't the key issue in my post, and thus avoiding the rest, are you perhaps trying to be a "sneak"?

Silly requirements tend to make me stop reading. If you're really interesting in communicating, rather than, say, preaching to the choir or stroking your ego, you should dial down the bluster, IMHO.
