The coccyx, or tailbone, is the remnant of a lost tail.

Wisdom teeth are vestigial third molars that humans' ancestors used to help in grinding down plant tissue.

The plica semilunaris is small fold of tissue on the inside corner of the eye. It is the vestigial remnant of the nictitating membrane (the "third eyelid") which is present in other animals.

I'd love to hear why we have these useless things explained by creation as "God thought it would be neat"!

Science has an explanation. It's called evilution.....

The vermiform appendix is a vestige of the cecum, an organ that was used to digest cellulose by humans' herbivorous ancestors. Analogous organs in other animals similar to humans continue to perform that function, whereas other meat-eating animals may have similarly diminished appendices. The modern functionality of the appendix is still controversial in the field of human physiology, although most scientists and physicians believe that it has little or no function.

Vestigial structures are anatomical structures of organisms in a species which are considered to have lost much or all of their original function through evolution.

I'd like to hear your explanation for this please?

The amount of ignorance on this subject is mind boggeling.

Everytime someone bashes the "Crusades", I ask them "Do you know who they were FIGHTING EINSTEIN!"

If I had a penny for each time a person didnt know that the Crusaders were fighting off Islamic invaders, I would be a zillionaire. One time, I literally got ill pondering the ramifications of our own ignorance...I mean, people defending Jihadist movements today by lashing out at "Crusaders" who...WERE FIGHTING JIHADISTS!!!!

The Jihadists believed that the world was divded into two camps: THE HOUSE OF ISLAM, AND THE HOUSE OF WAR. You either were in the house of Islam, or were in lands awaiting Islamic onslaught. By the way, google this historic phrase "House of Islam...", see how much is written about this Islamic concept, that still applies today.

Jeremiah 10 10:2
This is what the Lord says: "Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the sky, though the nations are terrified by them.
10:3
For the customs of the peoples are worthless; they cut a tree out of the forest, and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel.
10:4
They adorn it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so it will not totter.
10:5
Like a scarecrow in a melon patch, their idols cannot speak; they must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not fear them; they can do no harm nor can they do any good."

------------

Hmm... might Christians be buying into Pagan beliefs?

Darksome night and shining moon,

Hearken to the witches’ rune.

East then South, West then North,

Hear! Come! I call thee forth!



By all the powers of land and sea,

Be obedient unto me.

Wand and Pentacle and Sword,

Hearken ye unto my word.



Cords and Censer, Scourge and Knife,

Waken all ye into life.

Powers of the witch’s Blade,

Come ye as the charge is made.



Queen of Heaven, Queen of Hell,

Send your aid unto the spell.

Horned Hunter of the night,

Work my will by magic rite.



By all the powers of land and sea,

As I do say, “So mote it be.”

By all the might of moon and sun,

As I do will, it shall be done.

What is it, what does it mean?
Is it truth or is it just a theory?

Why must they constantly bash atheism rather than learn more about it? They make a straw man argument and knock it down. Why must they do this?

If we invent our own concept of good then, we end up worshiping ourselves. Where is the real reference or benchmark to universal GOOD?

How do Atheists think our complex bodies formed? I know that animals and such are getting more complex over time and started from single-celled organisms. Do the Atheists think that the cells combined and miraculously created a loving, seeing, feeling body? It's an honest question so please don't take it in offense. Blessed be.

2 tidal waves, in the Pac NW (Washington) coming over the tops of trees, me and a bunch of people were on a bus, it was washed away and flooded then the wave went away. The other was smaller. Then pieces of the moon started raining down. I saw a young Moses and I asked him his name in Hebrew (I don't speak Hebrew) the people around me were shocked I spoke that language. He told me to rejoice for the time of Christ was near and the 7 year tribulation has started. I told the people. I also told them to surive to see the coming of Christ or if they didn't than to rejoice for they would be with Him in heaven... any body else having dreams like that? Don't tell me I'm crazy, I already know that, seriously though..
