You may be correct concerning that Weekly World News article (their articles have been known to be less-than-accurate), .... I appologize for misleading people due to my being fooled by the article/images. It is certainly a very elaborate hoax.
*edit inserted here* By the way, according to this article, there have been only 23 true "tails" reported since 1884. It certainly does sound like a more reasonable number than 12 million.
Notice from jlhaslip:
edit to insert last paragraph
Thanks for correction
That is reasonable now. 23 cases since 1884 and can be considered as other defective [2 heart, 3 eyes, 6 fingers, etc ].
The beginning of my doubts was questioning using math for wrong purposes[than 12 millions without specific times]. I am mathematician.
Then came the logical question that was why the Darwinists didn't mention any of these 12 millions as evidence for their claims. I am aware of all their others claims. I am as scientist is seeking truth and real proof before hypothesis to be considered a fact.
Wow, this is very interesting.. has it been researched to see that the tails can be genetically inherited?
I've never heard anything about human tails, and obviously it is a rarety, twelve million out of the six billion we currently have. Could this be some form of reverse evolution? I've read articles of "wolf men" that are entirely covered in hair, and if a "wolf man" inherited both the hair and the tail, could they be considered a lower life form? What if they were mentally challenged at that? Sorry.. just some deep thinking :|
After reviewing www.weeklyworldnews.com though, I think that this article is in fact a joke, I do not believe many stories, if any from this website.
Yes it doesn't sound credible the least to me. 12 millions sounds like an impossible number for some person or a few people to count and if its secret than how do people find out about them?? lol. The flaw was in the story. anyways.
I think people do have tails. At first i thought it was scoliosis you were tlaking about but it wasn't that. That doesn't look like a tail but like some misplaced organ.lol.
probably it's a malformity of some sort. or probably a part of the evolution thingy. monkeys use their tails for them to be able to hang on trees, used as a grabbing tool. evolution of the human species did not need the tail so as time passed the tail shrunk. if i'm not mistaken it is our tail bone. correct me if i'm wrong though.
I will agree with everyone else, in that having a tail does not signify that you are in some way one of Satan's little demons. This defies all logic, and even the very book that Christianity was founded with.
I also agree that it could very well be an evolutionary mishap. According to evolutionists, we are descended from apelike creatures, which very well could have had tails. This recessive gene could very likely turn up occasionally.
Though, being as it has not been studied thoroughly, we know very little about this phenomena. Whether it is a tumorous flesh, muscle and blood vessels, or an actual continuation of the spine in unknown.
Rejected and Iwuvcookies, it has already been stated that the main article is, in fact, a hoax, as stated just four or five posts above your own.
However, this strange deformity is real, just not as common as the article would lead one to believe.
By the way, I'm curious why my original post was censored. The only thing wrong with the pictures is that they showed the tops of a few butts, which is necessary in order for one to see the tail. I guess the mods consider that to be a bit more adult-rated than I do.
mmm quite odd really. Can people jiggle them around. . .like other animals tails, or are they static? LOL sign of the devil lol! Hardcore Christians make me laugh but seriously, i suspect its some type of mutation. Considering it has no purpose, since humans lost the need for tails quite a few thousand years ago when we stopped leaping around trees. It would be intertsting to find out if there is a gene which causes this. Lots of people are born with these tails, but most are simply cut off at a very early age.
Actually, all human have a tail during a certain point of development (I've attached a couple images in which a tail can be seen in certain satages). The tail usually disappears after a couple months or so, though.
