Hey,
I have a question . Please help me on it:

Stephen jay Gould thought the best way to argue against intelligent design as the origin of modern flora and fauma was to focus on such oddities of nature as a whale fetus's developping and then dissolving a comlpete set for teeth, in contrast with things like a seagull's wing.
Why did he think so, and why would Hume (philo)disagree, and argue that a seagull's wind would do just fine?

Philo as you certainly know is the character in the Dialogue concernnig natural religion by Hume

PLease tell me what you think about this question

Sounds like homework.

Why would a seagull's flatualance-"wind" have anything to do with its evolution? : )
