You show me the word “irreducible” one time in that article, and I’ll concede the point. You’re arguing what you think my point is; let me reiterate - this is sloppy journalism.

I’ll grant that the article say Pope Benedict XVI does not advocate the position of proponents of “intelligent design”, which it then defines as those who credit a “higher power for the complexity of life.”

Many people, including, no doubt, the Pope, credit a “higher power” for the complexities of life, without adhering to the dogma of intelligent design. This article seems to lump all believers together as irrational buffoons…that’s my objection.
