Is the male reproductive system poorly designed?

by Jerry Bergman

One of the latest proofs of human evolution is the poor design claim, namely that an intelligent Creator would not design some human body part in a certain way. An example is the human male reproductive system, which Rowe listed as number four in his list of the top 10 design flaws in the human body.1 The human male reproductive system poor design claim focuses on the view that “if testicles were designed”, then why didn’t God “protect them better. Couldn’t the Designer have put them inside the body, or encased them in bone” like the brain which is surrounded by a hard skull?2

From the article:

"Concluding that a body structure is poorly designed,

as Oxford University Ph.D. Professor Hafer claims,

Hafer explained that when she was looking for new approaches to refute Intelligent Design,

she knew she “had a winner when … in the middle of an Anatomy and Physiology lecture.”

she concluded that the male reproduction system “is a great first argument against ID”. 3

She believed that she also had a good “political-style argument” against ID."

After watching my father’s battle with prostate cancer I’d have to say yes.

The sharing of urinary and reproductive functions was a very bad design flaw IMHO. The ability to pee is pretty important.

God is most definitely a woman.

No man would have placed the testicles outside in the open.

Cancer and the Fall has great potential to screw up a great design.

IF she is so intelligent then she can start with clay, shape her ideal man and breathe life into him and claim some notoriety. Until then, she can keep her pie hole shut.

It should probably come out the top of your head. Then you could decorate it better.

Also raises the question if evolution is efficient, why would there be flaws? Wouldn’t the less efficient flaw be naturally selected away in favor of those better suited to survival?

But if a circular argument by Rowe.

Gee, who would have guessed another ‘scholarly’ (note the quotes to denote sarcasm) article with the thesis that men are defective.

Leftist females like the one mentioned in this article are horrible people.
