[__ Science __ ] Design Arguments for God & “Irreducible Complexity”

Irreducible complexity has been observed to evolve via mutation and natural selection.

Wilson (1977) has argued that the evolution ofhigher organisms involves the evolution of new regulatory mechanisms, particularly those that lead to co regulation ofblocks
of genes that were previously inde-endent. In light ofthat concept, it isparticularly interesting that the ebg operon has evolved so that it not only controls its own expression, but it controls the expression ofanother operon, the lac operon, one of whose products is required for the complete function "lactose utilization." This evolutionary sequence from an unevolved operon to a maturely evolved operon that responds appropriately to its environment required three steps: a structural gene mutation, followed by a regulatory gene mutation, fol-
lowed by a second structural gene mutation (Hall, 1982b).

It's the way God made things to work.
