In the last several years Miller and other evolutionary researchers noticed that the flagellum resembled a needle-like structure that bacteria such as salmonella use to inject toxins into living cells. The needle's base has many elements in common with the flagellum, but it's missing most of the proteins that make a flagellum work.


The system seems to negate the claim that taking away any of the flagellum's parts would render it useless. It also suggests how the marvelously complex flagellum could have evolved from simpler forms.

It would make it useless as a flagellum. And to postulate that Oh, it could have been something else and then turned into a flagellum is among the weakest arguments for anything I have ever heard of. So before our eyes evolved into eyes, they were doorstops first, and then became eyes. With that kind of leeway, I am sure you could postulate that the stork brought babies while the sexual organs were evolving.

Why the need tgo go and pick on storks now.

What did they ever do to you?
