Published by: Instytut Filozofii, Uniwersytet Zielonogórski
Keywords: falsifiability; irreducible complexity; Darwinism; intelligent design; miracle; design inference; bacterial flagellum
Summary/Abstract: Author is a proponent of intelligent design theory which states that some biochemical systems were designed by an intelligent designer. He considers the issue of falsifiability of this theory and tries to remove misunderstandings regarding the notion of irreducible complexity (irreducible complexity is a feature thanks to which, according to the author, one can recognize whether a given biochemical system was designed). Author takes into consideration also the issue of soundness of postulating methodological naturalism in science and opts for the opposite position.
