'''Vestigial structures''' are structures or organs that have been claimed by evolutionists as [[theory of evolution|evolutionary]] "leftovers", that are no longer functional or have ceased to be used for their "original" function, and this has been used as evidence for evolution, as [[God]] would not have created useless structures and organs.<ref name="JB2000">Bergman, 2000</ref>

This is not a scientific argument, but a [[theology|theological]] argument.<ref>Doyle, 2008</ref>

Vestigial structures do not exist, and constitute [[fake news]] by [[atheist]]s. The list of supposedly vestigial organs in humans has gone from 180 in 1890 to none in 1999,<ref name="JB2000" /> as functions have been found for such organs. Moreover, the claims of vestigial organs or structures are a scientific argument, but a false [[theology|theological]] one.<ref>Doyle, 2008</ref>

*"Vestigial structures are entirely consistent with [[intelligent design]], suggesting structures that were initially designed but then lost their function through accident or disuse. Nevertheless, vestigial structures also provide evidence for a limited form of evolution. From both a design-theoretic and an evolutionary perspective, a vestigial structure is one that started out functional but then lost its function. Yet, in the case of [[evolution]], vestigiality explains only the loss of function and not its origination. Vestigiality at best documents a degenerative form of evolution in which preexisting functional structures change and lose their function." -- ''[[The Design of Life]]''
