Okay, I'm not even a big evolution guy, but this seems like stupid science to me. And here's why: If at two weeks/months/trimesters gestation human foot bones seem a certain way, and somehow relate to some ancient bird or lizard, who cares?
What did the ancient bird or lizard feet look like at two weeks/months/trimesters? And how, in any way, does that prove anything? If a preborn human somehow resembles a fossil of an adult, fully formed bird or reptile then whoopdeedoo and isn't that neat. But it surely means nothing. Or am I not being scientific here?

sorry...in my post "bird" should be replaced by "fish". And still....so what? We could actually replace human embryo with marsupial offspring fecal matter...and yet the science seems to be junk.
I never claimed to be smart...so some science/biology guy explain the significance to me, please?
