Has someone implied that a vestigial appendage is some sort of evidence of upward evolution? What about the seeming leg remnants in a whale. Have you seen any walking whales in history? About the poor girl with the twin attached, I'm sure she will carry on that mutation to the next generation.
I understand that all of you are biased toward an explanation that has to include any clues that you can dig up to support an unproven theory. It's easy to look at a finished product and decide that it had to come from something simpler earlier on to make sense out of a lack of real proof for anything substantial. I know that you guys can't really agree with anything which might approach sense if it involves agreeing with a theist. You are really embarrassing yourselves.
If animals are changing as radically as you all imply, then every animal that exist should still have multitudes of unfinished variations in progress, proving that this process is still ongoing. We would not see one vestigial appendage, but a total package of changes that make up all animals. You should be able to pick out hundreds of these changes as there are multitudes of subsystems that are being altered. Where are of these mistakes? If life can only work when all of the packaged parts work in harmony to design a viable living creature do any of these changes make sense? I liken this to a house which under constant and total remodel all of the time. You couldn't live in such a structure as it is not fit for habitation. If you add thousands of years for these changes to be finished, you should see the progress, since partially designed parts have not been finished in their design. This stuff is happening accidentally, as you say. There is only one way for a part to be added to a creature before it can use the part. There are billions of ways to get it wrong. Where are all of the ongoing accidents showing that this process is still continuing?
I wish that I could be online 24/7 to monitor all of the "off the wall" comments that you all like to make. If any of you could answer the simple questions that I have already proposed, I might be slightly convinced that honest and caring people are out there who really have something important to say. Don't let your frustration come back at me, just be nice.

If he knew how to read he'd be paying more attention to how thoroughly he's been getting his ass handed to him these last few pages.
