We start of these structures that would normally develop into gills (but those structures are suppressed), we have the potential for a tail (that is suppressed again in humans), etc etc etc. When you look at how we come about, you cant help but think that whoever designed us isnt very intelligent - or that we are just products of millions and millions of years of random mutation and selection of useful traits.
Wow. That is astonishing. It is unbelievably sad, though, because this would mean that all those acquaintances I have made are completely and intentionally ignoring the evidence. how can someone remain incredulous in the face of so much proof?
