The Digestive System - Paul Anderson
Paul Anderson makes a passing remark on the appendix. He calls the appendix a vestigial organ meaning that the appendix has no purpose for us. An evolutionist considers a vestigial organ something we used to need, but we have evolved beyond our need of it. Actually, according to the Scientific American, "the appendix probably helps to suppress potentially destructive humoral (blood- and lymph-borne) antibody responses while promoting local immunity." see link article
