Since we haven�t had any good ID drive by�s recently, I was wondering if anyone would explain to me how something like blood clotting might have evolved. I�ve read a few arguments from both sides and understand how in theory IC systems can evolve, but I actually don�t understand how something like Blood Clotting could have evolved. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Addendum: It does cover clotting, now that I look again.

ever wonder why the Bible commands males to be circumcised on the "eighth" day?

I figured it meant eight days after you were born.
