Wednesday’s Watch: Using a Mousetrap to Explain Irreducible Complexity

In this video, Michael Behe uses an illustration of a mousetrap to explain the concept of irreducible complexity.

Irreducible complexity is the concept that biological systems are made up of interacting parts, and if you take away one of the parts the system will not work. You don’t get functionality until the whole thing is put together.

If this theory is true, evolution is false because if any of the parts were modified during evolution it would render the whole organism non-functional.
