Ah, but Paracelsus made the claim that humans are irreducibly complex.
I interpret this as meaning that we have physical structures that cannot
have evolved from an apelike animal. This in turn would imply that we
have genes that cannot have evolved. If something different was intended,
please clarify.

I don't understand your point here. Are you perhaps saying that the
gap is caused by the presence of an immaterial spirit in man, rather
than anything physical?
