Re: Snake with foot.

Interesting find. I could be wrong here, but I think snakes still carry inactivated genes formerly used to produce legs in their ancestors. The genetic code for the leg is still present, but inactivated. It would be interesting to know what the scientists find.

If they do find that the leg is a result of those inactivated genes, it would only led more support to evolutionary theory.

with some added help for effect



the part that makes me doubt the most is that it was supposedly using this fully formed leg to cling to stuff on the wall.

Re: Snake with foot.

Why do people always have to kill god's creations.

I would of loved to see that snake alive to see if it could use the foot.

America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. – John Quincy Adams (1821)
