There’s another thread on this:

But the genes responsible for subconscious senses are not inactive. Different thing. Different concept.

The concept as I stated is that because we don't know the function is not evidence that it has no function. Ignorance is not evidence.

Experience should be a caution against writing off any part of the human body as useless or junk. The thymus gland being just one such example. But still evolutionists dismiss ear muscles and and our appendix and “pseudo” genes
as useless or vestigial.

The thread on pheromones is pretty much worthless with childish off color comments but one part of the posted article was worth repeating:

“Problem is, the effects of pheromones are thought to be subconscious — meaning that if we do communicate using them, we sure don't know it.

It's also hard to know what these pheromones might be and how we sense them, so researchers understand little about them.”

Indeed.
