Darwin’s Black Box, 30 Years On: A Seminal Contribution to Biology

A Mousetrap for Darwin, Baylor University, biochemistry, biology, Brown University, bubonic plague, Charles Thaxton, Congress, Darwin's Black Box, Douglas Axe, Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, faculty, injectisome, Intelligent Design, Irreducible Complexity, James Shapiro, Jonathan Wells, Journal of Molecular Biology, Kenneth Miller, Lehigh University, Michael Behe, Michael Denton, motorcycles, mousetrap, naturalists, non-theistic evolution, Pajaro Dunes, Paul Nelson, protein evolution, Roger Olsen, San Francisco, Seattle Pacific University, Southern Methodist University, Stephen Meyer, T3SS, The Mystery of Life’s Origin, theistic evolution, Type 3 Secretory System, University of Chicago, Walter Bradley, Yersinia pestis, __featured1
It makes sense to think that the T3SS didn’t evolve into the bacterial flagellum, but that the bacterial flagellum shed some protein parts to become a T3SS.  Source
