Abstracts

PL
Jest to krytyka Michaela Behe'ego koncepcji nieredukowalnej złożoności. Weber uważa, że Behe przedstawia błędną dychotomię możliwych wyjaśnień powstawania złożoności biochemicznej: darwinizm-teoria inteligentnego projektu. Jego zdaniem złożoność biochemiczna może być także wynikiem samoorganizacji. Weber przedstawia argumenty za tym, że tak rzeczywiście jest.

It is the criticism of Michael Behe’s concept of irreducible complexity. Author believes that Behe presents a false dichotomy of possible explanations of the origin of biochemical complexity: Darwinism-intelligent design. According to the author, biochemical complexity may be also an outcome of self-organization. He presents arguments that it is indeed the case.
