once outside the canal, the protein will be folded back into its
three-dimensional form. Remember, a single flagellum protein

consists of 495 amino acids!
Let’s briefly go over how this happens: two different pro-
teins, Fli I and Fli H, in charge of transportation, join together
before they are joined by the flagellum protein to be carried.
This protein complex binds to a ring made of proteins, to be
dismantled later. Here they wait for the exit door to be cleared.
Once the door is available, the protein to be transported binds
to the exit gate together with the protein complex.
Keep in mind that this is a very smart gate. When there is

no queue, the gate is closed. However, if there are proteins
bound to it, the gates open and the protein is dismantled to lose
its three-dimensional shape and passes through the canal. Fli I
and Fli H proteins leave the exit gate by means of ATP hydrol-
ysis. The smart exit gate uses the driving force of the protons to
send the flagellum proteins to the canal. Proteins, now disman-
tled from their three-dimensional forms into long amino acid

chains, pass through the 2nm canal. After the entire chain en-
ters the canal, it is sent to the outer edge so that the flagellum
can be built. In the meantime, the Fli I and Fli H proteins that
were released before, bind to another flagellum protein and this
cycle continues.
The fact that such a highly complex process takes place in-
side the bacteria in a very short amount of time and on a con-
stant basis is another clear proof of Almighty God’s infinite
power.

Naturally, evolutionists cannot explain this.
