Sorry, FRiend, you were using the words "homologous" and "analogous" as if you knew what they meant.
I didn't, exactly, so I looked them up to be sure.

"Homologous" means they really are the same.
"Analogous" means they only look somewhat the same.

You claimed the octopus & human eyes are "homologous", meaning they really are the same.
Then you criticized "evolutionists" for saying those eyes are merely "analogous", meaning they only look somewhat the same.

Sorry, my fault for equating your misunderstanding of the terms with a deliberate intention to "stretch" the truth.
That was not warranted.

Octopus and human eyes are analogous meaning they only look somewhat the same.
They are not homologous because they are not, in reality, anywhere near the same.
"Evolutionists" are correct in this matter.

Again, my apologies.
