the way you peel it- could it have been natural selection?

No. Is a brazil nut or a coconut evidence of intelligent design? There are many things in this world that seem to indicate a rather UNintelligent design. The banana just got lucky.

no, the cavendish banana was formed by hybridisation, random mutation and *artificial* selection (by humans). if you're prepared to call that intelligent design, then i guess it is intelligent design. the wild type banana is almost unrecognisable as a banana.

But..but...what about pineapples? Those things are annoying to peel! And coconuts are downright dangerous. I've heard of people seriously injuring themselves trying to open them with knives, hammers, axes, etc. ID goes right down the toilet when trying to explain that.

No, we domesticate plants to suit our wants. A wild banana wouldn't seem all that intelligently designed.

That was a FUNNY video.
You know, they were using a domesticated banana. The wild ones aren't actually like that.

Yes, A banana has a peel over it to protect it from critters. sheer coincidence? Hardly.

Yes, naturally designed by man (banana growers) from it's natural state to the nice shape we have today.

It's just a friggin' banana for Pete's sake!
It doesn't scream "Eat Me!" or anything like that.

I'm not sure but I know a banana is good to keep away mosquito's away.
