Both are part of the lymph system that conducts lymphocytes throughout your body. Routine removal of these organs has stopped because they noticed a three fold increase in polio in children with tonsillectomies, and five times increase in colon cancer for appendectomies.

Why? The tonsils are your early warning “radar” and samples passing pathogens you eat and breathe. Thus an early antibody reaction is started before pathogens can destroy tissue.

The appendix does the opposite. It knows what pathogens are in your colon, and excretes a continuous stream of antibodies to ward off irritating necrosis. They can actually examine the secretions to measure efficiency of the immune system.

Don’t listen to your doctor—he has dollar signs in his eyes. Usually tonsillitis with it’s swelling will subside normally. And the irritation at the entrance of the appendix may subside by reducing dietary sugar and oils while drinking activated charcoal powder.
Don’t you agree that God knew exactly what He was doing when He included “vestigial” organs to promote life and confuse the wise? A Bible code identifies your Creator. You might be surprised who the author of your DNA is. See http://abiblecode.tripod.com

Does your sacroiliac wiggle? I can’t think of a better way to cushon the posterior of the spine, obviously God thinks likewise.
Reply to Snout:

Some doctors treat appendicitus with charcoal while observing symptoms. While doing exploratories, surgeons often notice a flacid appendix that has healed spontaneously.
Reply to Soul Shaper:

True, with allergic reactions and related problems, surgery is an option for some illnesses.

And a frontal lobotomy is in order for many YA responders.
