Aschlafly, to start, not every claim of vestigiality has been proven false about humans.  The three items I listed above are examples that have withstood testing for now.  I do not disagree that there is a possibility that they may be reclassified as more information is gathered, just like tonsils, however it is unlikely.  Here are some published references for the items I listed: Coccyx <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8059973</ref><ref> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/677043</ref><ref> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6373560</ref><ref> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3284435</ref>,  Plica<ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15255295?ordinalpos=4&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum</ref>

L-gul<ref> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10572964</ref><ref> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8175804</ref>.  I have no problem admitting the deaths of people placed under anesthesia however to claim that the removal of the tonsils caused the death, well that is something that would have to be looked at on a case by case basis, which considering the millions that have their tonsils removed does not seem to be the cause.  I believe the key is the definition of vestige: the remnant of a structure that functioned in a previous stage of species or individual development.  Vestigiality can be proven by morphology and sequence testing, pretty clear if you ask me.  As for my spelling I apologize, English is not my first or primary language and I wrote the comment while traveling for the holiday, failing to spell check before I posted as I normally do.  Rod, as for your comment, I agree with many of the items posted on this article as shown in one of my previous posts, however what you have posted recently is easily shown to be incorrect thus allowing for the question to be raised what are your intentions for this article?  You keep trying to label my assertions as propaganda; however you provide no published evidence contrary to my statements.  As I have said before I am a Biochemist, a field which relies heavily on the ToE so it is only reasonable for me to have a favorable view of evolution.  I am a scientist which also means I question everything, including ToE.  Aschlafly’s comment of the fall colors actually intrigues me.  I know the biochemical pathways that lead to the chemical reaction in the leaves but I only understand that the difference in color is caused by the concentrations of the chemicals in the leaves.  Not being a neurobiologist, I do not know what wavelengths of light stimulate what parts of the brain which would be needed to scientifically understand Aschlafly’s statement.  I have supported my claim in the links above, perhaps you should open your mind to the understanding that perhaps not everything is as it first seems.  As for being taught, well consider that I actually perform research so my friend I use experience more often than not.--[[User:Able806|Able806]] 09:38, 29 December 2008 (EST)
