Gimme a break. You propose as a magical explanation for the wonky path of the recurrent laryngeal nerve a process for which there is absolutely no evidence: the sin of Adam and Eve messing up all the rest of the world. There isn't even a statement of this in the Bible itself, just one vague sentence in Romans 8:22 (the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together) which various theologians have riffed on. So what did the pre-Fall giraffe look like? How long was its neck?
As for DNA, if it's such great evidence for creationism, why are the vast majority of genetic scientists evolutionists? Why do they confidently use DNA to measure the degree of relationship between widely disparate species and to estimate the millions of years between various evolutionary stages?
The vast majority are deceived.
"The vast majority are deceived." You must be into conspiracy theories. So you think that only a bunch of people who have no scientific education are correct when they cling to the predetermined claims of a few fellow fundamentalists with science degrees who can't get themselves published in peer-reviewed journals. If there were compelling evidence for the creation fairy tale, real scientists would acknowledge it.
If you could reason with religious people, there would be no religious people — House
