The other day we posted a ridiculous video in which one of those creationism charlatans claimed that the fact that you never find "new life" inside an unopened jar of peanut butter was disproof of evolution. [If the logic of that explanation escapes you like it did me, I suggest you go back and watch the clip again. I promise you still won't understand.]
Well, I think we've found an evolution skeptic who tries to sow his doubts with an even more faulty argument. In fact, this may be the weakest anti-evolution argument yet. I believe the assertion is based on the claim of irreducible complexity, that is, the notion that something that occurs in nature is so perfect it must have been created by God.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you: the banana.
And yes, that's former child star Kirk Cameron looking on in amazement at the irreducible complexity of the banana.
UPDATE: I just did a little checking, and I could be wrong (or I could be a mutant), but I believe I have 4 ridges on the "far side" of my hand and 3 on the "near side."
Dear God...
