Re: Let's be clear here, on a couple of things.....

randman,

I didn't read past the first 2 paragraphs and I can see it is probably fruitless to respond to you anymore. You persist in misrepresenting my arguments to create a false straw man to argue with, and that's sad on your part because it prevents a real discussion.

Given that this discussion is about Haeckel's embryo drawings, I don't think asking exactly (with evidence as opposed to your opinion) where the fraud occurs, is misrepresenting anything, nor is logically fallacious. It seems to me to be a perfectly legitimate question, & one that you have failed to answer.

It therefore seems a little hypocritical to be accusing RAZD of being fruitless in discussion.

randman,

The way it appears to me is that a fraud was used for 130 years

I'm still waiting for you to tell us EXACTLY what is demonstrably fraudulent. Your entire case depends on this.

Re: Let's be clear here, on a couple of things.....

randman,

Sorry Mark, but I already did that and am not going to waste my time doing it again just because you ask.

The closest you came to answering the question was post 174. But that was just your opinion, you were asked to demonstrate that a fraud had been committed. Your opinion isn't enough.

I am quite happy to concede that fraud has been committed, but not on your merest say so.

All I am asking you to do is to support your premises.

Re: where's my baby at...?

randman,

The yoke sac in fact performs an important function. It is how the developing embryo gets it's blood initially

And why does a human embryo need a yolk sac to get blood, when an umbilical & placenta that serves the rest of the pregnancy would serve equally well? Why have an extraneous organ during development?
