Just an off topic thought... anyone know if creos and IDists deny the dodos ever existed?
Added by edit.
To bring my post somewhat on topic, anyone know why the creos and IDists continue to lie about Haeckel being in textbooks? I could have sworn one of god's 10 commandments forbid people from bearing false witness. What gives?

I have pulled out the first textbook that I could find. It is new. It has Haeckel's embryos in it. It may not call them Haeckel's embryos but it still clearly shows the earliest stages as being the most similar.Haeckel's fraud lives on.
I'm curious. Do you actually deny that embryos of different species at earliest stages look like each other? Because for one thing they actually are pretty darn similar to each other at the earliest stages. So, are you lying for jesus or just playing dumb?

We should be cautious about overstating the similarity of early embryonic stages
Of course we do. It all depends on the context of its mention in beretta's text book. He/she/it made it out to sound like the book said "everything looks like each other at the earliest stages of embryonic development therefore evolution is proven haw haw haw."
Notice how beretta hasn't stated anything specific about the supposed mention in the book or the text book itself. For now, we are still left with a bare mention.

They are not most similar in the earliest stages as Haeckel clearly said they were -they are clearly distinguishable and only become more similar in the midstages.
I see that percy has already answered this.
So, again, are you lying for jesus or just playing dumb? Answer the the question.
Are you playing dumb or are you deceived OR are you lying for the cause of evolution and it's propogation as truth?
And exactly what statement by me are you referring to or do you just want to sound poetic?
