Darwin was wrong about so many things. Him being wrong about rudimentary organs is just one more thing on the list.
And as you just saw, he got it exactly right. The appendix in humans no longer has the original function of digesting plant matter, but it has at least two others that are not found in the structure in other animals.
God created man from the dust.
God created woman from Adam's rib.

1. Darwin was wrong about God
We'll just have to disagree about that.
Naturally, you disagree .
Darwin blamed God for evil, death, pain, suffering and extinctions.
God tells us that the cause of evil is sin.

2. Darwin was wrong about Science ...He started with a pre-determined position
You've been misled about that, too. If he had never discovered the process of evolution by natural selection
You have been mislead.
Natural selection was discussed before Darwin. (He initially pretended it was his idea)
Evolution was also a belief long before Darwins time.

3. Darwin was wrong about Geology
His discoveries are still valid and subsequent investigation has only confirmed them, and explained the forces behind them
Nope... He assumed the Santa Cruz valley was shaped over eons of time, then used eons of time to extrapolate evolutionary beliefs.

4. Darwin was wrong about the fossilsActually.... Darwin was at least partially correct about the fossil record because he said it essentially falsified the ToE
That's quite dishonest of you. That's not what he said at all. Shame on you
Nope... Darwin ponders why the transitional fossils are missing and says thing such as "the imperfection of the fossil record, the limited exploration of the record, poor fossilization of certain body types..."
Darwin was wrong... The fossil record has pristinely preserved soft bodied creatures.

5. Darwin was wrong about the tree of life.
In 2009, the cover of New Scientist says "Darwin was Wrong...cutting down the tree of life"
The latest research shows Darwins tree is collapsing.
One of the scientists interviewed in that article W.F.Doolittle was also published in Scientific American (Feb 2000) saying the imagined tree of life is a tangled mess.
There is no tree of life. hundreds of different imaginary trees are in textbooks and journals all based on a belief system and similarities
Turns out that DNA analysis confirms the tree first discovered by Linnaeus to a high degree of precision.
Darwins tree is a tangled mess. DNA analysis confirms we have been fearfully and wonderfully made. e DO have a common Designer... not a common non human ancestor.

6. Darwin was wrong about Nature of Life.
Darwin thought life was simple..(.it 'ain't'. A single cell can be compared to a huge city with manufacturing plants, busy highways, side streets., workers etc. Its information system is like the internet. single cell has an energy system like a citys energy grid. And... This 'city' has a design that allows rapid duplication. ).... Darwin said "But if we could conceive in some warm little pond, with all sorts of ammonia and phosphoric salts (These are all over the world) light, heat, electricity ETC...that a protein (Ha, Darwin had no idea how complex a protein is) compound was chemically formed ready to undergo still more complex changes"
Darwin said "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find out no such case"
Darwin was wrong because he didn't know anything about genetics or modern biology. (No one did 150+ year ago)
Darwin supposed that God just created the first organisms. Why do you think that's wrong?
Darwin supposed a warm little pond since he had no idea how complex life is.

7. Darwin was wrong about natural selection
Darwin made the mistake of unbounded extrapolation. He said "Slow though the process of selection may be, if feeble man can do much by his powers of artificial selection, I see no limit to the amount of change...by natures power of selection". (Breeders understand there are limits to selection) Funny and sad, but Darwin believed given enough time nature could change a bear into a whale.
Lynn Margulis, evolutionary biologist and one time wife of Carl Sagan explained that natural selection can elimininate...it can not creat.
Anyways... Darwin was wrong about what selection can do. It helps to preserve life forms but can't create.
Does it matter that Darwin, one of the most famous people in history was wrong?
Well...It mattered to Darwin. He seems to have literally sold his soul to obtain fame, and went to a Christless eternity.
It mattered to Darwins family (sons) who also rejected Christ and ended up leading a eugenics movement.
It matters that Darwin was wrong to the hundreds of millions of souls who rejected the gospel over a false belief system.
The evidence shows that it changed ungulates to whales
The evidence shows no such thing. You have been mislead. Arranging fossils in a pattern to fit preconceived beliefs is not science. God's Word tells us He created the great sea creatures BEFORE the ungulates
Darwinism is toxic to to faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ. Encourage your family and those you know to move away from the darkness that results from Darwinism, and accept the true light of the world.... Jesus
