Casey Luskin of the Discovery Institute lying on the TeeVee

I'm mirroring this video for DonExodus2, because I debated Casey Luskin briefly, until I proved he was lying on multiple points. Then he broke off the discussion saying that I was being mean to him. This is the same willfully ignorant shit-head who says that paternity tests don't work because if they did, they would challenge his religious nonsense. Now he's lying through his teeth on national TV. DonExodus2 caught him on it, as you can see, and the amoral bastiches at DI filed false -and illegal- DMCA against him. No. It ain't that easy.

Casey comments on Haeckel's embryos. Please see my video on the 13th foundational falsehood of creationism for more accurate information about that.

From New Scientist:
"As we celebrate the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth, we await a third revolution that will see biology changed and strengthened. None of this should give succour to creationists, whose blinkered universe is doubtless already buzzing with the news that "New Scientist has announced Darwin was wrong". Expect to find excerpts ripped out of context and presented as evidence that biologists are deserting the theory of evolution en masse. They are not."

Haeckel's embryos are presented as factual in the book Brain-Wise: Studies in Neurophilosophy by Patricia Churchland which has a copyright date of 2002.

@Mortison77577 They are 'factual' as comparisons of commonality in embryology, but they do not reflect their ontogeny does not "recapitulate" reflect their phylogeny in the manner which Haeckel described.

[Mortison77577]

Haeckel's embryos are also presented as factual in the book What Evolution Is by Ernst Mayr which has a copyright date of 2001 and is still in bookstores. He mentions that Haeckel switched a dog embryo with a human embryo for at least one drawing, but he still presents them as factual.

[AronRa]

Most of them are. Haeckel only 'accentuated' certain features of a half dozen of the hundred such drawings he did.

@IAmHotize So instead of sound science that has been looked at and revised and improved upon for over 300 years, you propose we indoctrinate our children with 2000 year old desert mythologies about a cosmic Jewish zombie who could walk on water and turn it into wine?

[SqueakerAlpha]

I wondered why if Haekels embryos were such a big issue why Behe or one of the other biologists dont do a set of pics and donate them to textbook publishers. Show me the letters that have been sent to publishers as well.

@IAmHotize

Joking right?

[tvanklee]

@IAmHotize Dogmatic dullard. I'm hoping, for your sake, you're just trolling. Until you begin to think critically you are doomed to ignorance. Good luck.

[IAmHotize]

Stupid libtards trying to indoctrinate children shoving their bullshit theories down our children's throats, along with promoting the far left militant homosexual agenda. This is truly sad. We'll never make progress so long as you morons continue to brainwash our children and turn them away from our Lord, Jesus Christ in favor of pseudo-scientific paganism. Trust in the Lord and the science of our Lord. Jesus Christ reveals all, science reveals nothing.

@Mortison77577 Wrong. They merely emphasis commonalities to portray their existence. Much as if they were actual photographs with a zoom lens over the area of similiarity.

[Mortison77577]

@AronRa

They're not factual as comparisons of commonality in embryology because they show commonalities that do not exist.
