According to the beliefs of Creationist though mankind was created as the pinnacle of Gods handy work, either through outright creation (Adam and Eve) or from a guided ‘intelligent design’ idea, however the design of humans is not partially intelligent:
*Tailbones, now we all have tailbones, but not tails; if we didn’t evolve from Monkeys, please explain where these came from? Why would an all mighty creator bother to leave in a painful and useless piece on the human body?
*Appendix; unless you’ve had it removed we’ve also, all got one. Has no purpose in the human body (Rabbits love them – strange link there?) in fact it causes many deaths each year, from a painful and deadly condition; the inflammation of the appendix
*during the embryo stage of child development the embryo develops numerous features that are completely useless, and some a little more useful, such as gills – drowning would be a much less major affair if human kind had gills, but they disappear; unlike in fish – link to a common ancestor?
*childbirth – it hurts (I don’t know it personally, mainly because I’m male) why would an almighty creator make childbirth painful? It seems a tad stupid to make something that could bring new life (and followers) into the world a painful experience, and as a punishment is just wrong.
*disease – why make us susceptible from disease, AIDS only affects humans, why? Surely if an almighty creator could control or produce disease he (or she) would direct it away from the chosen species.
All answers appreciated, but please don’t just say “because the bible says so” or something else pretty empty
Thankyou
