For all of your extensive ranting about Haeckel, and the fact that his drawings were “fraudulent”, it remains true that vertebrate embryos resemble each other at the phylotypic stage, and those pictures were a representation of a fact that was not in itself, a lie. I agree that the illustrations should not be in textbooks now that we have better representations, and most textbooks have not used them for year (my textbook never did). That is irrelevant to the fact that their use served an illustrative purpose that represented something that we know to be true (note that the biogenetic law has not been taught for 100 years, but it remains broadly true that “ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny”, and with evodevo we are now understanding that at the molecular level). Creationists seize on Haeckel as if the actions of a single personality means that the entire science of developmental biology is fraudulent. It’s just Darwin = Hitler all over again: it’s pathetic and absurd.
