Design Flaw
Choking In the US alone more than 5,000 people die each year from accidentally choking on a foreign object (food, gum, candy, toy, etc) - 75% of those deaths are children under three years of age. Christians believe that the God of the bible is responsible for the “design” of the human body, including the throat . As can be seen from the illustration, and as many of us know from personal or observational experience, it is just a matter of millimeters that can change ones meal from a breathing and eating experience to one of sheer terror of impending death - all because of - the close proximity of the breathing tube and the swallowing tube . If ever there is an example of a "design flaw" in the human body, this is it . I wonder if there is a Christian out there who can explain to me why God made humans (and many animals) this way? bob r.u.reasonable@gmail.com
