flagellum – Uncommon Descent

Culture Darwinism Intelligent Design Irreducible Complexity

What? An honest admission about the bacterial flagellum from Darwin-driven biology?

Researchers: “To build the machinery that enables bacteria to swim, over 50 proteins have to be assembled according to a logic and well-defined order to form the flagellum, the cellular equivalent of an offshore engine of a boat.” They ADMIT this? It sounds like a Recovery Meeting.
