OK then. How would the Circulatory system function...
Maybe you could propose a new thread over at Proposed New Topics to discuss the evolution of the circulatory system? This thread is about whether the recurrent laryngeal nerve is really an example of unintelligent design.

Are you suggesting that no one on the evolutionary side of this debate is willing to play devils advocate for even a moment?
I don't know, this is the first time you've expressed a desire for an evolutionist to play devil's advocate for you. Now that you've made this desire clear maybe someone will volunteer. Or maybe not.
If this forum comprised exclusively of evolutionists...
It's not. Creationists in just this thread alone are you, traderdrew and ICDESIGN.
If you'd like to resume actually discussing the topic then perhaps you could tell us what the principles of ID tell you that ID scientists should be looking for regarding the RLN? What reconstructions of the design and implementation process do the principles and evidence allow you to make? What does the evidence tell you about the designer himself, and how does it help you find evidence of the designer?
And if you don't wish to resume discussing the topic then, well, could you resume discussing it anyway?

Another Plea for Getting on Topic
I'm not playing a moderator role in this thread, but the topic issue is pretty obvious, so with that prelude out of the way...
There are a number of other threads in the Intelligent Design forum that might serve pretty well for those who want to take the discussion beyond just the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Maybe someone could figure out which thread might be best to take this discussion (just click on that link for a list), then post a note here with a link to that thread.
Or maybe someone could propose a new topic over at Proposed New Topics. I'm going to be around most of the day and will promote it as soon as I notice it, assuming it's a good enough thread starter.
