Anybody out there believe the human body is perfect and without fault now?

Some real nuts out there believe the human body is a direct result of god being the "perfect" designer therefore his creation "humans" are perfect.
This is my argument that the human body has never been perfect and mutations (the basis of evolution) is oh too real.

For people wondering where the link leads. It shows pictures of some unfortunate side effect of the randomness of mutations (which is the basis of evolution)

If the the human body was perfect we would not get cancer or other diseases.

The human body was once perfect. Adam & Eve, before sinning, in the Garden of Eden. When mankind disobeyed God and fell into sin, the perfect body fell too. The human body was once in better condition than it is at present. Look how long people lived back then. Things have gone down hill ever since, except for more recent times medical advances. People can, with the aid of modern medicine and prople living habits live a long life but nothing like those mentioned in Genesis.

Your link to unknown content is suspicious, and should include some explanation of where the link leads, otherwise I for one won't click on it.
Reply: Apparently the man with the "tail', is some guy with a spinal defect, not a real tail. According to the article it protrudes from the lumbar region, not where an actual tail does. The Bible even accounts for such extended abnormal growth, "For whatsoever man [he be] that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous," (Lev 21:18), which in this case would be the neural tube of the spine. Thus it serves as yet another example of the evolutionist reading his own beliefs into the facts.

of course it is. After all I'm human and wouldn't have chosen to be born into a substandard vessel. Also, perfect requires context. Perfect for what exactly or perfect how? Our bodies aren't built for hunting but our brains make us the best (most successful) hunters on the planet..We are weaker than cows but we control the whole of their lives. I believe we are perfect in that we were crafted to make interesting things happen. wolves catching deer aren't interesting they have swift strong bodies and sharp teeth along with the means of tracking their prey easily but humans can do the same without the natural advantage. we were made in such a way that we must always strive to accomplish what nature has freely allowed for other species. Birds were given flight and they are stuck with the flapping of wings or gliding. Humans unable to do either have made helicopters, hang gliders, blimps, jet packs, rockets, propeller driven airplanes, jet planes and a myriad of remote controlled flying devices. We are perfect in body in that we have bodies that make us constantly strive to be better.

The design flaws in the human body are legion, as anyone who has ever caught a cold should be well aware. Example: the eye's photosensors are on the wrong side of the optic nerves.

It links to pictures of odd looking people including a man with a giant hand (lymphodema), a guy in India with a tail, a lady with a nipple on the bottom of her foot. Interesting stuff, but possibly disturbing. Reality is a harsh mistress. Ironically, there is a link to a "vote for the prettiest girl" type contest in the top left hand corner of the page.

Who here ever said that the human body is perfect? I don't think I've ever seen anybody claim that.

I didn't see it, but I'm not entirely sure to whom you are referring to. According to Christianity, the body is not perfect because of sin. That would probably explain whatever you wanted me to see.

Yes and what about nipples on men. Surely a major design fault
