...Interestingly, Darwin himself grasped the problem and even admitted that it could falsify his theory. “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed...by numerous, successive, slight modifications,” he wrote, “my theory would absolutely break down.”” Today we can confidently say that his theory... | |

...envisioned everything being guided by natural selection. The following quote conveys his thinking: “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed...modifications, my theory would absolutely break down.” - Charles Darwin Darwin should be applauded for this particular statement. This quote is right on target.... | |

...Darwinian natural selection is capable of accounting for it. Quoting Darwin's acknowledgment “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed...modifications, my theory would absolutely break down,” Behe introduces the concept of irreducible complexity: a system is irreducibly complex if it would... | |

...consistent with the theory of evolution! Charles Darwin, the father of evolution theory, also stated, "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed...modifications, my theory would absolutely break down!" Many and repeated times it has broken down! Biochemists have shown that biochemical systems are designed... | |

...betray considerable artistic licence). Let us go back to Darwin who wrote in his Origin of Species: If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed...modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. Darwinists must take these words very seriously because we are now at the stage when an accumulation... | |

In the Origin of Species Darwin wrote: "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed...modifications, my theory would absolutely break down." 24 Creationists have been in search of Darwin's exception ever since.
