'''Michael Behe''' is a biochemist, author and professor at Lehigh University in [[Pennsylvania]]. His books include ''[[Darwin’s Black Box]]'' and ''[[The Edge of Evolution]]'', which both highlight the inherent problems with [[evolution]]ary theory and present a case for [[intelligent design]]. He argues that [[molecular machines]], such as the bacterial [[flagellum]], are [[irreducibly complex]]. Such machines require all of their parts to function, Behe says, and so could not have come into being through an unguided process. He considers this [[evidence]] that the [[flagellum]] must have been [[design]]ed.
