I would have to dissect that snake or get a good X-ray of it to determine if it confirms or contradicts that article. I have heard it from lecturers, that the embryo diagram most used in evolution text was fabricated. If I were going to try to confirm anything I would start there.
Yes the embryo drawings were fabricated over a hundred years ago and the truth was revealed fairly quickly. Luckily, embryo comparisons aren't used as proof for evolution. Nice red herring.

Replace that with hypothesis and it at least could be. Using the word conclusion, as you did here, you could easily swap creation science for evolution. Both parties seem a little overzealous about what they believe and seem blinded at times by findings that seem contrary to what they wish to prove.
In the end, I still do not see what this has to do with the God question,

Wrong. Creationists are constantly trying to say evolution is as much of a religion as creationism and that just isn't true. Evolution relies on supporting evidence, and it has nothing to do with being blinded by findings contrary. There exist no
valid contrary findings. I think most scientists would happily accept a complete invalidation of evolution, because thats how science works. Hypothesis are created from available evidence, and reworked or thrown out entirely when new evidence arises.
