Every single human being has a tail. It develops when you're about a 4-week-old embryo and then the vertebrae and other tissues are gradually re-absorbed by the body over the following few weeks, so that almost all of us are born with just the very base of the tail, the coccyx, which is not even visible externally. In rare cases however, the tail is not fully re-absorbed and the person is born with a visible, atavistic tail.

Most significantly, the genes responsible for the human tail are the *same* genes which serve that purpose in other mammals which *do* have a tail.

Why would an intelligent designer put the genes for a tail in a creature which is (usually) tailless at birth? Why would he have it develop for a few weeks and then be re-absorbed by the body?

There is only one plausible explanation that I can think of for humans having the genes for a tail: We inherited them from tail-bearing evolutionary ancestors of several million years ago.

Agreed?

My friend the Intelligent Designer did that because He knew well in advance that it would be your desire to see that.
"There is only one plausible explanation that I can think of for humans having the genes for a tail: We inherited them from tail-bearing evolutionary ancestors of several million years ago". In his pure love and desire to fulfill this for you He did design that tail.

See my friend how much love the one and only Intelligent Designer has for you personally. He had you in His mind millions of years ago.

Do have a good day and think about that for a while..

I thought you were talking about my awesome tail, aka booty! Now that is an evolutionary gift, if there ever was one. I am waiting to see what creationists have to say about the other kind of tail.

In the beginning of the Embryo, the central nervous system is the main stem , connected to the tiny heart and brain. It is refered to as the Backbone. The main structure of the embryo. And as the Fetus grows, the backbone becomes more in unison with the total development of the child. So in other words, God had no plans for humans to have a tail. But in order to completely developed the complex human system, this is the beginning of the method he so miraculously formed. This is even greater proof that humans do not come from Monkeys or Apes. Humans contain human flesh and animals contain animal flesh. Says so in the Holy Bible. What more proof do ya need ?? Your groping for straws and there is none. No I dis-agree with you, by 100%.

We need it for..... uh.... balance?

I'm sure some Creationist will show up and demonstrate to you human kind's dire need for a tiny hidden tail.

Yes, but do I have to look at rodents in with the same affection as I have for my immediate ancestory?

obviously we have them so for that one week we've got tails.

It's another thing to cross off the list.


That makes absolute sense. does it not?

-edit-

oh i thought of another reason. Without the coccyx, Bart Simpson would've never been able to break his coccyx, and that was a wonderful larf.

And what's so intelligent about having the urethra travel through the prostate in males?

Again, he'd have failed "introduction to design".

Not to mention...

male nipples,

ear hair,

underdeveloped ear muscles,

the plica semilunaris of the conjunctiva,

goose bumps...etc etc

Seems like God engaged in VESTIGIALITY with us....

It would be great if it would grow long enough to scratch that spot between the shoulder blades that you can never seem to reach.
