An international team of researchers say they have discovered a blueprint for a general understanding of the evolution of the "machinery" of our cells providing more evidence, at the molecular level, in support of one of the key tenets of Darwin's Theory of Evolution. A non-Darwinian explanation, from believers of Intelligent Design, proposed these complex machines to be "irreducibly complex".
