Creation Moment 10/29/2012 - Appendix & Vestigial Organs

"Evolutionists ......In the late 1800s they made long lists of vestigial organs in humans, including the tonsils, pineal gland, thymus, and appendix.  In the years since, advances in our understanding of anatomy and biology have knocked them off the lists one by one. In 2009, researchers at Arizona State and Duke Universities reported that the little appendix is a "safe house" for important gut bacteria. If the intestine becomes infected and is forced to flush everything out (diarrhea), the good bacteria stored in the appendix are there to return the intestine to normal working order.  "Maybe it's time to correct the textbooks," says William Parker, Ph.D., assistant professor of surgical sciences at Duke and the senior author of the study. "Many biology texts today still refer to the appendix as a vestigial organ." Furthermore, over 70% of all primate and rodent taxonomic families contain species with an appendix.  The vestigial organ idea helped fool millions of people into believing the theory of evolution. Today, this "proof" is down the toilet." DebunkingEvolution
