Well we can make stators , rotors, propellers etc. It doesn't take a
"higher" intelligence to make them, and there is nothing preventing us from
doing so, just advances in technology.We can make irreducibly complex
systems. In the Conference of Molecular Nanotechnology held in 1998 they
were actually able to make a motor much like the flagellum. There is also a
patent on such a motor: >>
FMA:
Cool, so we can use nature's examples to design things.
Nelson:
Actually motors have been around for quite some time before we even
discovered molecular motors. This was found in Behe's journal:
David DeRosier's in the journal Cell: "More so than other motors, the
flagellum resembles a machine designed by a human.".
