Just wrong. What can be invented once can be invented again. (You need only look at flight in bats, birds, insects, and pterodactyls.) The genes in particular (and probably the structural data) will be different enough to indicate the operation of convergence, not divergence.

Exactly what I am saying! Once an intelligent designer has invented something, it is easy to replicate the design with slight changes in anything totally unrelated. However, evolution is a theory of descent, gradual descent and its central theme is that functions are not invented, they do not arise miraculously, but they gradually descend through slight changes in their ancestors (that's the reason for the silly evolutionist tree of life).

Further you are taking this as if it was just one example disproving evolution. As I said, this is one, the fact that the genome is not in accord with evolutionist assumptions is another. The fact that Haeckel's 'philogony recapitulates ontogeny' was a fraud which has been thoroughly disproven by real science (not the joke science shown in post# 1532 ), shows quite well the falsity of evolution. In fact, note that 2 of the three 'proofs' of evolution claimed by evolutionists are frauds and the third, convergence, is not science in any way but pure rhetorical nonsense.
