did snakes have legs (page 2)

So if you search WT CD for "snakes" and "legs" this doesn't come up?

i eventually found it using search dut i cant remember what word i used...but you should be able to use the index for the scripture..serpent..snake..questions from readers..but none of these places direct you to it...curiouser and curiouser

I haven't seen ya for ages, PS

Apparently some snakes have a rudimentary pelvis. Perhaps they devolved.

some of the pythons do have primitive structures that are presumed to be the vestiges of what once were legs.

I accept it may still be not the smoking gun but it is something interesting, wouldn't you agree?

It's a pretty stupid concept, snakes having legs very recently. Imagine putting four legs on a modern snake. The body is so long that it wouldn't be able to support its own weight. That alone clobbers the Watchtower's idea.

This whole notion is nothing more than an ancient myth from people who knew nothing of biology.

I guess I got the sillies......but it was funny trying to picture this. What will be thought of next?

I agree that it may sound incredible but not entirely improbable, whether you believe in god or evolution. In fact, taking evolution in this matter seems easier as it would explain bizarre randomness. Read this: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2000/03/000317051940.htm
