Conclusive proof that every snake evolved from two headed mammals.

How exactly is this evidence? More wishful thinking is more accurate. A baby boy (from China, incidentally) was born with three arms, all functional (so five limbs). So, are humans descended from five-legged/appendaged animals? Can you say pollution?

Mutation

Will it produce more, most likely not.

Will it live long as such maybe.

Is it proof that believers in evolution will use anything to support macro-evolution including fossils which prove nothing. Undoubtedly yes.
Sprinkle some what if, imagine that, could have, might have, seems to have, dust on it and you have evolution.
