Ok i Give up !! We are not talking about natural stone arches... As many software developers are reading HN, you can meditate about the creative power of randomly mutated code.... which is the official engine of darwinian évolution.

Ok this is the définition of gradualism, but it is a great claim, a nice story never scientifically proven. Which mecanism ? which statistics, odd of creation of functional protéins ? Since biochemistry darwinists have to work and to prove

I argue random mutations applied to software does not create any new fonctions, it breaks eveverything. Also that any usable software was designed by a mind. Where comes this mind from is another question. Which random mutated software are

It is interesting that your dogma is gradualism, and you explain gradualism through gradualism. Then you appeal to the God of time, but many great paleothologists and mathematician have demonstrated that it is not enough ! Please note that

The "arch principle" is a nice terminology to say that we have no clue of which gradual steps led to the final irreductible complex system. Being irreductibly complex, the missing of only one part leads to nothing and cannot pass

My point was to say that darwinian evolution is no more acceptable for an engineer since biochemistry describes irreductible complexity mecanisms, engines, pumps, codes, coders, decoders, machines etc... in life at the molecular level. Afte

This is not logical : it is the main contribution of Michael Behe who coined the term "irreductible complexity". The arch cannot be build from gradual micro evolutions, because each stone (or function) has no benefit (and will not

As an engineer, I cannot swalow this kind of hypothesis and the darwinian evolution theory : The first self-replicating cell (LUCA=Last Universal Common Ancestor) must have all in one : - a computer code that makes a full functionnal self-r
