So the presence of the appendix proves creationism? Who knew? I guess we no longer need faith. Cool.

“For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.”

Romans 1:20 NASB

The Word begs to differ.

No, I think the thrust of the article is to report that an appendix is seen in many animals which are divergently represented on the phylogentic tree and a reasonable evolutionary conclusion would demand that reason and logic would conclude that the appendix 'evolved' many times independently. Convergent evolution may be a 'get-out-of-jail' card for 2 unlikely developements but over 30??? You have to have a lot of faith in evolution without epistemic explication to believe that. The same seemed to be said about bioilluminescence in the article.
