Yeah, but hardly irreducible even in the wildest fantasy, which is why the ID raconteurs don't torture us endlessly about titin. It basically evolved from a series of gene duplications in tandem with the evolution of multicellularity, giving rise to regularly repeating domain patterns.

No, I wasn't claiming that it was. What this article says could just as easily be interpreted one way as the other. For instance, if God were designing apes and men, it stands to reason that He would use many of the same materials.

(I'm not saying that's the case, I'm just saying that this doesn't really prove that men evolved from apes. Before Darwin came along, the "great chain of being" that goes back to the ancient Greeks organized the members of the animal and plant kingdoms in much the same way as Darwinists did later. It was understood that there was a hierarchy of complexity, or of lower and higher orders.)
