Bob434: "where did i state that EVERY SINGLE SPECIES HAS EXACT SAME FEATURES"

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.

[[I didn’t, exactly,]]

obviously- you also have a reading problem,- many species do infact have the same systems- had you read my original post about the issue correctly you would have seen that- since you seem to wish to turn this into insulting me- just like you’ve done to me in the past- I’m not going to discuss the issue further

[[You claimed the octopus & human eyes are “homologous”,]]

NO I didn’t- I NEVER mentioned a comparison between octopus and human eyes- either you are flat out lying about me now- or you are incapable of reading my posts correctly- STILL falsely misrepresenting what i said- I’m not playing your games- you’ve done this to me in the past- enough is enough!
