Yeah, sure. This from those who jabber about the world being 150 million years old. While science obviously proves otherwise.

NBA players should be developing wings and feathers any day now to help them leap.

Thanks.

Feathered dinosaur to winged dinosaur with feathers on four limbs to birds with feathers on four limbs to birds withfeathers on two limbs.

Add a little brain development in there to provide the processing systems necessary to control two-winged flight and you've got modern birds.

So, why parrots?

I recommend the author simply read Genesis. Evolution ain’t what our “educated” literates crack it up to be. There are no proven instances of macro evolution. None. Zip.

Prehistoric Birds May Have Used Four Wings To Fly

They had to. There was no bacon then and hot wings were in much higher demand.

Some scientists, quite a few actually, say those are not feathers but another substance. At any rate I refuse to believe that dinos grew wings simply because they waved their arms in the air while catching bugs, which is the theory that some scientists put forth to explain the growth of wings and feathers.

If Dinos were going to evolve into birds don't you think the logical candidate for this would have been the Pterodactyl family? They could already fly and already had wings, yet the ground based two legged theropods are the ones scientists picked to be the "ancestors" of birds. BTW, I am not religious nor a young earther. I just use common sense when it comes to evolution, it is BS, and anyone with half a brain can see most of the theories are simply that, BS.

No evidence exits which actually proves evolution, or creation for that matter.

It isn't just about birds developing wings and feathers, it is about the whole respiratory system changing, how did that happen gradually over a period of millions of years and why? Nope, evolution doesn't hold up under scrutiny, and it doesn't take much scrutiny to tear it down. People who believe in it are just as naive as people who believe in religion and Gods.

It was a proto-avian Animal Farm: "two wings bad, four wings good!"

Later they evolved to "four wings good, two wings better!"
