Look up the recurrent laryngeal nerve.
I did, for the lazy
Your point ? I didn't go deep, but nothing jumps out at me.
"Evidence of evolution
The extreme detour of the recurrent laryngeal nerves, about 4.6 metres (15 ft) in the case of giraffes,[32]: 74–75 is cited as evidence of evolution, as opposed to intelligent design. The nerve's route would have been direct in the fish-like ancestors of modern tetrapods, traveling from the brain, past the heart, to the gills (as it does in modern fish). Over the course of evolution, as the neck extended and the heart became lower in the body, the laryngeal nerve remained in its original course."
I think this is what he was getting at
Yeah, saw that, guess it could be, not compelled. Cheers though.
It's like taking a detour to Chicago to get to DC from New York
I'm glad you think your god is incompetent.
You had doubts ? ;}
Seeing how they invented bone cancer for babies and malaria-resistant mosquitos, not in the slightest.
So it loops around the aorta. That’s weird, but is it a problem?
It's a perfect example of non-intelligent design and evidence of evolution.
high ping to your larynx, basically
