I don't know what drawings you're talking about..... I also said imvertabrate, I meant to say vertabrate. sorry about that. but yeah, it is true the early satages of the ebryo for vertabrates are very very very similar.
you're right about the whole single celled organism thing.... it's very unlikely to happen, but it's not impossible.
one theory of how it happend it that a bolt of lightning created a single celled organism after it hit the water.
that theory is possible. It has even been re-created in a lab. they hit the water with a man made bolt of lightning and a cell was made. The water had the same chemistry of the water in the pre-historic days that they though life started in.
But yeah like I said, it works. cingle celled organisms can be created from lightning hitting the pre-historic water. I'm not sure but maybe if the right molecules just happen to be near each other at the right time a cell can be made.
Also, if the single celled organism was made from something like lightning, or just by luck, then there were probably a lot of single celled organisms being made.
This is where the theory of selective breading comes in. it's not breading, but it's close. The cells that could survive, lived. The cells that could live, and could multiply lived longer than the cells that could only live. the cells that could work together in order to gather energy lived longer than the last cells I spoke of. The cells that worked together better than the last lived longer. Later on in time, cells worked together very well. The cells started to have specific jobs. There were creatures like jelly fish roaming around the earth. The jelly fish kept on evolving and formed fins and bones and blah blah blah blah. Fish and crustations were formed. Fish slowly became better and crustations became better. blah blah blah blah. The fish stated to leave the water in search of something to eat. Also to hide from the Crustations that hunted them. Blah blah blah. Amphibians were formed. blah blah Next came lizards and other stuff. blah blah blah
I don't know everything about the origins of all animals so i'm gunna stop.
but yeah, when you think of how long all this took to happen, it really doesn't seem that unlikely to happen.
I mean, if there was a timeline of life on earth... Humans and dinosours wouldn't even be uncluded on the line, because we weren't here long enough. Most of the time spent with life was with the single celled organisms, because they took so long to evolve.
Think if it like a lot of micro evolution. A whole lot of micro evolution. It happens in stages, and it takes a lot of stages to even see a small diference in something. There is no other type of evolution There's only micro evolution. It just took a lot of micro evolution of make what you see today. And the reason you see it today is because there have been so many different types of single celled organisms. One of the single cells was bound to make something eventually.
I looked up those drawings.... they don't look perfect, but they're by no means fraudulant. Look up some google images of vaious embryos of different vertabrates. You can see for your self. I looked up a cat and then a dolphin. They were very similar.
also, the fact that you think those drawings are fraudulant proves to me that you are close minded and not willing to accept a truth, regardless of how it effects you.
It shows me that you don't want to accept that evolution exists. I, on the other hand, am perfectly willing to accept that God created the earth, and Jesus was his son, and died for our sins. I just don't that's the way the universe was made. But if I'm wrong, I can live with that.
