You haven't even formulated an argument, you just go along with mainstream science, (which I DO understand), without ever questioning the serious flaws that it has. Name calling doesn't make your position more likely

I've already given my answer above and think it's rather clear.
The flaws don't fit perfectly. If you think they do, ask all those who have nearly choked to death on various foods.
No you were the one saying the flaws fit perfectly in the evolutionary models.
Your scientific approach: all new structures have no function until we can PROVE what it is. They must be vestigial if we don't know what they do. Evolution of the gaps.
My approach: if it exists it probably has a function.
As for the throat problem, let me ask you a question. What evolved first, the esophagus/trachea settup that you hate so much, or the epiglottis, which covers the trachea during swallowing? If you ever didn't have the epiglottis, you would choke and die every time you swallowed. If you had an epiglottis with no lung/trachea settup, then you would be wasting resources by producing tissues and you would be selected against. Not to mention the fact that you could not breathe or eat.
I don't have the time nor the inclination to educate you on biology or evolution.
I'm leaving in a couple of hours and won't be back for about a week.
I'll let the others educate you, though I don't honestly expect you to listen to them.
