Not sure where the quote is from I looked back didn't see it.....

But... all I can say Okiefreak is that you haven't been around much if you think that OWB is condescending.

Maybe I'm off the mark, but I feel he looks more towards the Bible as a reference manual and not a technical manual.. where you're normal thumper considers it a technical manual

Now this is no put down on you age or anything so don't start gunning me down me being a old fart myself....well not quite as old as OWB ..but who is ..lol
He doesn't come across as condescending to me and I know condescending... having experienced quite a number of times.

In fact tomorrow I have to do a personal thank you to a pastor from Calvary Chapel, so I wondering how that is going to go. It means I have to make a service ... so i'm taking a clove of garlic

 

personally I can't wait

Okay, you caught me, I've got a big back yard.

 

Hey! Wait a second! I resemble that remark!

 

OWB is about as condescending as Ned Flanders



Complete with stache.

Sorry, I had to do it.

 

Updated version:

 

I never realized that if the hair was gray, I would be Ned Flanders!

 

WOW haha

 

LOL. I like the sunglasses.

 

What opinions do creationist's have on Human vestigiality as evidence for evolution?

Human vestigiality involves those characters (such as organs or behaviors) occurring in the human species that are considered vestigial - in other words having lost all or most of their original function through evolution.

Coccyx

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

Ear

The ears of a Macaque monkey, and most other monkeys, have far more developed muscles than those of humans and therefore have the capability to move their ears to better hear potential threats. Humans and other primates such as the orangutan and chimpanzee however have ear muscles that are minimally developed and non-functional.[

Behavioral
Goose bumps are an example of a vestigial human reaction to stress.

Behavior

Humans also bear some vestigial behaviors and reflexes. For example, the formation of goose bumps in humans under stress is a vestigial reflex; a possible function in human evolutionary ancestors was to raise the body's hair, making the ancestor appear larger and scaring off predators.

I thought goose bumps were biologically useful in the fact that they help to generate warmth?

 

I would agree.

 

Well If you're just looking for an opinion, I always thought that vestigiality is something evolutionists made up to try and prove evolution. They just took things we don't yet know what their use is and said see these are vestigial and prove evolution true.

 

What about wings on flightless birds?

 

Like penguins?

 

Or chickens or the Dodo...

 

Penguins actually use their wings to fly in the water and chickens are not flightless birds.
