They're getting creative with their fins, and I'm creative with how to spell 'considering'. : }

Sounds more like someone is grasping at straws here. That's quite a bit of conjecture over could also be called a birth defect.

This is totally ABSURD!

Fossils do NOT indicate that dolphins had four legs or fins.
There is NO evidence to even suggest that dolphins wandered around on the land.

It's just an abnormality. Just like with people - strange things happen.

"Conclusive proof that every snake evolved from two headed mammals."

Absolutely!

According to evolutionists this would be proof of that too!!!

This kinda of thing is EXACTLY what I've been saying about evolution's cult. Evolutionist take a fact and twist it to fit some preconceive conclusion. Nothing wrong with that, it just needs to be made clear that the conclusion is NOT fact.

It's totally ridiculous to conclude as "Fact" something you have not observed. And it's bad science. You can "Believe" a certain outcome, but that's called religion...but evolutionist have no Faith, so they have to end up convoluting facts that's called a Cult.

That fish looks vaguely like Mel Gibson. It's in the nose, I tell you.

I like Mel Gibson. I wouldn't mind evolving from him, as long as I didn't drink (like a fish?).

Just sayin'.

Dolphins did evolve from land mammals, but one deformed animal doesn't prove anything. This article is sensational and unscientific.

"Dolphins did evolve from land mammals"

This is your belief (or hope) anyway.

Dolphins did evolve from land mammals...

Dolphins did NOT evolve from land mammals...


One is true: one is not.

Now then; let's lay our FACTS on the table and let's just see where they lead us.
