Evolution does and does not predict irreducible complexity, and anyway it doesn't exist ...

I've been meaning for ages to review the pseudonymous* Mike Gene's Design Matrix - and yes, I'll get to it - but for now here is fun post at his blog, summarizing the incontrovertible truth about evolution and irreducible complexity

Chris Ho-Stuart: However, Muller’s claim is that this [IC] is an EXPECTED result of evolution.

Massimo Pigliucci: there is no evidence so far of irreducible complexity in living organisms.

Blue Collar Scientist: Muller’s paper….contains a description of irreducible complexity, along with an explanation of how it comes about through the simplest of evolutionary means. It amounts to a prediction that “irreducible complexity” will actually be found in organisms.

Niall Shanks and Karl Joplin: The redundancy we observe today in effect represents the biochemical and molecular footprints of evolutionary processes in action.

Wikipedia: he described the “interlocking” of biological features as a consequence to be expected of evolution

Wikipedia: It may be that irreducible complexity does not actually exist in nature

Got that, class! Now remember it for the Indoctrinate U entrance exams.
