Call me stupid, but dont the scientists actually have scan photos of embryos passing through these stages? If so how do the refute it? Silly people!I don't recall exactly, and I don't have the book with me, but I know at one point it was refuting the idea that embryos went through stages of evolution in the womb as they developed, such as a "lizard-like stage" and a "bird-like stage" and there was something else, but I honestly don't remember what it was... If I can find the book again later, maybe I'll quote something from it.
Oh! I remember that it was saying stuff about scientists who believe some organs are "useless left-overs" from evolution are wrong, because they used to think tonsils were useless left-overs and would remove healthy ones, even though they do have some sort of use. They made no mention of the appendix, however, whose only use is to possibly rupture and kill you...
As far as the appendix goes, there is new evidence somewhere that it actually does have a purpose...I just cant remeber what it is or where I read it, sorry!
