if the secondary purpose of the indirect route was found to be as a sound/vibration dampener using the aorta then this would be strong evidence for intelligent design. Vibration dampening techniques are not a matter of life and death and survival of the fittest couldn't explain how such a sophisticated idea could get a foothold within the human body.
????????????
How the hell would the route of the
nerve produce any sort of sound/vibration dampening? Once again you make up ludicrous
ad hoc hypotheses without a shred of evidence. This is the same sort of bogus claim you have been making consistently while refusing to provide any substantiation. Now you seem to be admitting that no, there isn't actually any evidence for any of your claims, but that is only because those lazy evolutionists won't do the work for you and substantiate your claims.
Plus! Using the
Aorta for this sort of purpose? There isn't some other tissue that is a bit less important that could have been co-opted? I mean suppose someone shouts really loud and the vibrations along the nerve are so huge they rupture the aorta!!!??!! Oh noes!!
I can only assume that the evolutionists are being so stubborn about not wanting to pursue research into this field because if they are found to be wrong then the other function/purpose becomes strong evidence for intelligent design.
Shouldn't the real question be why intelligent design proponents aren't wanting to pursue research into this field? They have funding, as the Biologic Institute shows, and we are constantly being told about all the scientists who advocate intelligent design.
The real reason such research is not ongoing by the way is because there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that the indirect route has any effect on vocal performance. As I have pointed out repeatedly there is an indentified population of people with non-recurrent laryngeal nerves. If there are any effects on vocal performance then they are clearly so small that no one has been able to identify them in this population, it would be useful if they could since it might produce a handy diagnostic for identifying non-recurrent laryngeal nerves prior to surgery.
survival of the fittest couldn't explain how such a sophisticated idea could get a foothold within the human body.
How do such nonsensical ideas get a foothold in the minds of creationists.
