Good, I was not looking for your approval.
Good, because you won't be getting it.

A good design, by whose standards? The human body is riddled with problems. 1-3 % of all babies ever born will have deformities requiring medical interventions. We're not even counting handicaps that show up later in life. We're not even counting miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies yet. The system is highly flawed. You seem to think that we can't do any better than god did? yea, but why are you limiting god's abilities to our level? we're humans.
I have only addressed the topic of breathing and swallowing and have shown that there are greater benefits to the design than flaws, I've purposely stayed away from the original created persons and the sin that followed so we would not get distracted. You don't like the fact that the design benefits man with much greater purpose, you want to beat on one thing instead of looking at the whole. And you all want to through up science to me, use it yourself, please.
By the way if we breathed through our elbow, wearing long sleeves would be a smothering experience, swimming would be an difficult activity. Breaking ones's arm would make it difficult to put a cast on, and believe me snotty sleeves would be nasty, unless your a kid forever. I know there are other disadvantages, but it's late and I can't think of any at the moment.

And badwritersparty is correct, the throat and windpipe are pretty inconvenient features.
You're just afraid to address the argument you brought to the table, childish at least ignorant is most likely.
Your argument is ignorant. The evolved system we have is a makeshift, jerry-rigged one. Separate breathing and eating systems would not pose the the chocking problem and each could be more effeicient.
But it wasn't designed. It evolved.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
