Do We Have Vestigial Organs That Prove Evolution?

Is it true that our appendix is useless, left over from an evolutionary apelike ancestor?

No, actually it has three main functions:

1) a bacterial reserve

2) part of the immune system

3) part of the endocrine system.

Once again a Darwinian evolution prediction is shown not to be true.

Your definition of vestigial organ is incorrect. It doesn't mean useless: it means losing primary ancestral function. Vestigial pelvic bones in whales are another example of not being useless: they have lost their primary function for supporting legs, but they are still used for reproduction.

Well right off the bat you got Vestigial wrong. Vestigial structures in evolution means "lacking original function" and not "functionless". So in this sense, a bird's wing for example is a vestigial hand, but a fully functional wing.

You have to get your definitions correct before you attempt to refute Else you'll simply be arguing against yourself.
