‘Vestigial organs’ are still taught in schools, as ‘proof’ of Darwin’s religion of fish becoming fishermen.  It is biochemically impossible to have metamorphosis of species.  There is no mathematical possibility that a fish can become a reptile; a reptile a bird; or an ape a human.  Zero.  DNA, genetics and operating systems and software simply do not ‘mutate’ into different life forms.  This is a religion, not a science.

From Jerry Bergman’s ‘Useless Organs: The rise and fall of a central claim of evolution’ the tonsils, often cited as part of our primordial development from millions, billions, trillions soon? of ‘evolutionary years’ and an organ which can be happily cut off and thrown away, is of course, just another example of Darwin’s religious ignorance.

The Tonsils are important

In recent years, however, researchers have demonstrated the function of both the tonsils and adenoids. As a result of this newer data, most doctors are now much more reluctant to remove either the tonsils or the adenoids.

The tonsils are lymph glands critical to young people in helping to establish the body’s defense mechanism that produces disease-fighting antibodies. Once these defense mechanisms are developed, the tonsils start to shrink in the preteen years to almost nothing in adults, and other organs take over this function. Many researchers have concluded that because tonsils are larger in children than in adults, the tonsils are important in the development of the entire immunological system.

Researchers have concluded that the tonsils “form a ring of lymphoid tissue” that guards the “entrance of the alimentary and respiratory tracts from bacterial invasion.”

Called “super lymph nodes” they provide first-line defense to bacteria and viruses that cause both sore throats and colds.

Tonsillectomies harm the individual

Most medical authorities now actively discourage tonsillectomies.

Recently, the largest long-term study on the effect of tonsillectomies ever completed was published. Previous to this, most studies were short term, such as 6 months, or at most, a few years. This new study followed up the patients for close to 30 years post-surgery, and involved a total of 1.2 million subjects, including all children in Denmark born between 1979 and 1999. Of those 1.2 million children, 17,460 underwent adenoidectomies, and 11,830 experienced tonsillectomies within the first nine years of life.

Their health records were compared to the 1,157,684 who had retained both their adenoids and tonsils. The results were devastating for the procedure, with the researchers concluding that these organs should be removed only in severe cases. The 30-year research indicated that the modest benefits of the operations mostly vanished by age 40.

Workers in the New York Department of Cancer Control concluded that those patients “who have had tonsillectomies are nearly three times as likely to develop Hodgkin’s disease, a form of cancer that attacks the lymphoid tissue.”

Although removal of tonsils obviously eliminates tonsillitis (inflammation of the tonsils) it may increase the incidence of strep throat, Hodgkin’s disease and possibly polio.

Tonsillectomies are associated with disease

As many as one in five people who underwent a tonsillectomy suffered from serious diseases or health problems that they would otherwise never have encountered. This common childhood procedure more than tripled asthma risk, and doubled the rates of chronic bronchitis, emphysema, upper respiratory tract diseases, and conjunctivitis.116 It also increased the risk of allergies, influenza, pneumonia, and infectious diseases in general. The researchers suggested that with an even longer follow-up study, an increased rate of certain cancers and heart diseases may have been experienced...

Tonsils are vital to the lympthatic, immune and associated organs within these systems.  You can cut off your right arm and survive.  That does not mean it is ‘vestigial’.  When you remove part of a system, there are always consequences.  Evolution’s ignorance of medical science and its obsession with dogma is simply astounding – and dangerous.
