    This is Creationism if I ever saw it. Charles Darwin was born almost thirty years before the invention of photography.

    He seems a little slow. I doubt it took me 6 months to get into the dogfood.

    More like “Progeny recapitulates phylogeny.”

    I have long contended that ontogeny etc. continues behaviorly after birth: fish wiggling, to lizard crawling, to mammalian quadruped walking (knees rather than hind feet), to bipedal with the skill of a gibbon (but arms out rather than up), but he left out thd next stage – they go arborial and try to climb everything!
