[QUOTE="Kangal, post: 65661"] But true. Ok, tell me where the following points are discussed in the video. Timestamps please. [LIST=1] [*][B]Lack of Intermediate Steps:[/B] Irreducible complexity often assumes that there are no functional intermediate steps in the evolution of complex systems. In reality, evolution proceeds through incremental changes, with each step providing some advantage or function. These intermediate forms may not be as complex as the final structure but can still serve a purpose. [*][B]Exaptation:[/B] Many biological structures have exaptations, which means that they originally evolved for one function and were later co-opted for a different function. Irreducible complexity doesn't account for the possibility that a part of a structure may have had a different function before being incorporated into a more complex system. [*][B]Complexity Can Evolve:[/B] The argument that complex systems cannot evolve overlooks the fact that biological complexity can emerge gradually over long periods of time. Complex structures can evolve from simpler ones through the accumulation of small, beneficial changes. [*][B]Empirical Evidence:[/B] Irreducible complexity relies on theoretical arguments rather than empirical evidence. In contrast, the theory of evolution is supported by extensive evidence from various fields of biology, including the fossil record, comparative anatomy, genetics, and molecular biology. [*][B]Challenges from Evolutionary Biology:[/B] Many scientists and researchers in the field of evolutionary biology have addressed and refuted specific claims of irreducible complexity, providing plausible step-by-step scenarios for the evolution of complex systems [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
