Oolon,
The type of arguement you gave also refutes "irriducable complexity". It's funny how ID is percieved as being much more sophisticated, but is actually easier to refute than creation Science. Behe pretty much says that evolution works for everything we have figured out so far, but a designer must have stepped in for things I can't explain. What about all the things that evolution does explain? At one time people didn't know those things either.

Don't fall for the typical creationist argument: `no fossils showing so-and-so have ever been found. Therefore no fossils showing so-and-so ever will be found. Therefore God did it.'
