No they can't,so they need to go to another question.If people would think critically instead of believing what their professors say they might learn to think for themselves.That statement goes to students of all levels.

What a great point. God is irreducibly complex. Irreducibly complex things cannot exist without a creator. Nobody could create God. Therefore God doesn't exist.

You make assertions without proof. Continuous improvement of directional hearing without the sound emitter still creates an advantage in locating prey. Just being able to lock in on the hum of an insects wings enough to head in the right direction for food is sufficient survival advantage. Once you have the high frequency to hear the insects, why not locate mates with high frequency chirps that become further refined into sonar? Irreducible complexity has never been demonstrated in a biological system, but there is good money in lying about it. The ultradelicate, lightweight skeletons of bats, minimized for flight, are very unlikely to fossilize. There is a paucity in the fossil record. There are no relatively complete fossils of early bats, to date.

God isn't structurally complex. On the contrary, He isn't made of any parts and therefore is irreducibly simple.

Um, anything? Since a god would have to be the ultimate complex being, anything less is less complex and thus more likely to be irreducible.

Nobody can give any example of irreducible complexity. Period.

First we'd have to except the premise that there is a god and that he has given such an example. And of course we'd have to understand what that example is.

Good point!!!
God is, if you believe the stories, the most advanced thing in the universe. In fact he is perfect - always was always will be. Yet this incredibly complex thing just exists from nothing and believers have no problem with that.
If nothing comes from nothing then god is impossible.

Yes. Actually the concept of deity can, in fact, be reduced into their component energies which they represent.
If it were not so, everyone would define deites the same way... and they don't.
