Re: Ostrich eggs a proof of the YEC position

I thought that canard had been laid to rest by scientists already.

    *Sarfati's Alleged Problems for Evolution*

answers in Genesis has evolutionary biology on the run now. In an
article from 2002, Ostrich eggs break dino-to-bird theory
<http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2002/0822_ostrich_dino.asp>, they
explain that development shows that evolution is all wrong, since
developmental pathways in different animals are /completely different/,
and can’t possibly be the result of gradual transformations.

Man will they ever learn...
