The Windpipe—a Poor Design?

We eat and breathe through the same opening. Sometimes evolutionists point to this and say it’s “poor design” because sometimes people choke. But, is it bad design?

Well, we’ve been given a flap of skin that usually covers our trachea so that food goes to the right spot. It’s perfectly placed! That doesn’t seem like bad design!

And think about this: we move air from our respiratory system through the vocal cords in our larynx. This allows us to make sounds and our mouth, tongue, and lips let us shape those sounds!

It’s a very good design God’s given us. Evolutionists are grasping at straws to say it’s a bad design.
