Thus, while in your mother's womb, you go through a fish stage, with gill slits and even have a tail which you outgrow, etc. The only problem with all of this is that it is not true. This idea was an unsophisticated notion that was discarded by embryologists over 50 years ago. Yet students are still taught this myth sometimes, and it has been stuck in the consciousness of many people as evidence for evolution. Not only has this theory been totally discarded, it is well known that organisms undergo development characteristics of their own class.
Fishes follow one pattern, amphibians another, birds yet another.
Modern embryology tends to confirm the separate nature of animal kinds, rather than the similarities hoped for by evolutionists. It was once believed that there were numerous organs in the body that had no function, the appendix being an example. This supposedly was evidence for evolution, as these organs were left over from the process of evolution. Science has eliminated all such idea, as all 180 organs once listed as having no function in human beings have been found to have significant functions. All rights reserved.
