"A look at Ruben's full paper, in contrast with the creationist's quote from it, shows that Ruben's paper did not primarily concern when the avian-style lungs might have developed (or how), it covered when *endothermy* might have arisen."

So, clear it up for me. Are you saying that the dinosaurs were the ancestors of birds, or not? Or are you saying that the general theory of organic evolution is in such a state of flux that we just can't keep up with it?

Yes, they were.

No, I'm not saying that, and I don't know how anyone could have presumed that I was saying any such thing.
