Having been a student of comparative vertebrate anatomy for many decades I must inform you that your example does in no way support the theory of evolution. The ancient view that ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny is totally out of date. Homologous structures are just that and nothing more and your example in light of gene mapping is without merit. We know that structures may be comparatively homologous but often are not genetically homologous. For evolution to occur the structures must be genetically similar and they are not.

I think you totally do not understand evolution.

Google notes that you have been visiting the creation websites to get your quotes.
