Do other apes have a tailbone very similar to ours or not?
I don't know -- but I'll say probably.

Is that supposed to mean that we came from them?

Are our teeth the same? their eyes certainly look like ours.
If the answer is yes, then you can tell us why, since we are so far off with our PR campaign from SATAN.
If feet work okay for an ape, why not put them on us?

And given that we are made in the likeness and image of God, I would say it's the other way around.

He made ape feet from the same template as ours -- (with modifications, of course).

Precisely. They have this vestigial thingy and expect a universal adherence to the catch. Seeing that vestigial structures do not serve the original function, our eyes used to be fish eyes, that was the original function. Slightly different to help fish see underwater. But now they're human eyes. Teeth used to dinosaur teeth, the original function was to help dinosaur eat, now in humans, slightly different, they are vestigial because the original function is lost.

In fact, not just the structures you have stated but the entire human is vestigial. You just pick a structure, mix and match, speculate, then edit Wikipedia's complementary page.

It reminds me of the Ram Air Turbine (RAT) in aircraft. Its like a little propeller on the underside of the airplane which deploys to provide limited electrical and hydraulic power during a flame out. For the sake of emulation.

It was designed that way. But unless there is a loss of power, its function is minuscule to nil. In Carwinism however, it is clearly vestigial. It doesnt serve its original function, which is to act as the main powerplant in props and turboprops.

So, when it serves a function, it is evidence. If it doesnt serve a function, it is evidence. All this dancing and humbuggery is completely irrelevant though seeing tests show that a car cannot turn into a 757.

:eek: -- When I get sick, I don't know if I'm supposed to go to a doctor, or a veterinarian -- (or even what the difference is).

Animals don't tell lies and ask for sick notes.

it means we are genetically related.

Are our teeth the same? their eyes certainly look like ours.
Our teeth are similar, though their canines tend to be larger than ours.

And given that we are made in the likeness and image of God, I would say it's the other way around.

Why would he need to use a template?? So, you are saying that apes are modified humans? Did God make apes as a mockery of His perfect creation (that turned on him just like many of his perfect creations do)? Strange then that they appear in the fossil record before we do......

So who should we go to when we get sick?

If evolution rules, then the difference is only semantic, is it not?

A vet could probably treat you in a pinch. There are a few considerations, however.
1. He wouldn't know the proper Dosage.
2. He would be lacking in the knowledge of high profile interventions more commonly used in treating humans.
3. He would be lacking in knowledge pretaining to illneses seen in humans and not very often seen in animals.

Then what's the difference between a doctor and a veterinarian?

In the UK, according to the The Veterinary Act (1966) (and exemptions) it is illegal for any person, other than the owner of the animal, to treat an animal unless the permission of the animal's veterinary surgeon (veterinarian) is sought and obtained.

This means that a medical doctor cannot treat an animal, whilst the veterinary surgeon can treat a person. Of course the vet wouldn't be
allowed to put his human patients 'down' like he would his other animal patients :).
