    Imagine combining the liquid waste organ, and the pleasure/reproductive organ, and then putting it next to the solid waste organ.

    Terrible design. Also 2 arms arent enough, make me Goro from Mortal Kombat and we’re good.

    I think the new research is starting to suggest the appendix actually serves a purpose as reservoir for beneficial bacteria

    If there’s any kind of designer behind this whole mess, that dude should definitely be fired. Piss poor performance from start to finish.

      Human body was designed to be just good enough to not break down before you pass your genes down the line. The evolution had expected you to die in your 40s to diarrhea or a tiger, not to an old age.

        Kin Selection Theory suggests it can be evolutionarily useful to live long enough to be a grandparent, or an uncle/aunt who doesn’t have children. However, even that doesn’t mean you have to pass those years in perfect health.

    Eating and breathing with the same orifice is very inconvenient and poorly designed.

    Creationists always want to point out the wonderful things in nature. They aren’t able to cope with its myrad of flaws and how that would come about with a creator who has all the traits they claim: merciful, all knowing, and all powerful. You can take away any one of those and possibly make it fit, but you can’t have all three.

    I got my gallbladder taken out in December. I didn’t really comprehend the idea that I had a gallbladder before it was taken out, I didn’t feel it missing after it was taken out, and I don’t feel any different now that it’s gone.

    Thanks a lot for that one, God.

      because its just a storage sack for bile that the liver makes losing the gall bladder just means the bile gets injected into your digestive tract directly. (which is why initially, you may have bouts of diarrhea)

        And if there’s a God that designed us, he designed us so that it’s absolutely not needed even though gallbladder surgery didn’t exist for tens of thousands of years (or is it 6000?)

          keep in mind, people back then didnt live that long, so you were statistically dead by the time gall bladder problems would have probably arisen.
