Bacterial Flagella are Rotary Motors

-
There seems to be some confusion over on Peaceful Science where some, including Joshua Swamidass, are trying to deny the fact that bacterial flagella ARE rotary motors.

Google has a wealth of information that supports the claim:

bacterial flagella rotary motor

So I don't know what the issue is. Are they complaining because it isn't exactly like a motor built by humans? I don't know.

They seem to think that ID says it is intelligently designed only because we call it a rotary motor. Of course that is perhaps the most ignorant thing to think but given who is doing it I am not surprised.


ETA:

▪ Abstract Flagellated bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, swim by rotating thin helical filaments, each driven at its base by a reversible rotary motor, powered by an ion flux.
