Hardly. That is a copout. I want to see the half-bird, half-reptile and I want to see it now. I also want to see the half-amphibian and half-mammal. Or fish-reptile-mammal-bird whatever. If it is true these forms should still be everywhere and in obvious transition.

Can you explain the scientific reason for that?

How old are you?

Broomstick demanded; broomstick brought.

I also want to see the half-amphibian and half-mammal.">

Take your pick from this progression:

Pick one and Google it. Here's a web page on Thrinaxodon for starters but have a ball.

Or fish-reptile-mammal-bird whatever.

A mammal-bird transitional would be a disproof of evolution. (Evolution is actually falsifiable but hasn't been falsified! Can your theory say that?) Guess what? We don't have any of those.

You are asking for the join between various tips of the evolutionary tree. Well the join occurs further down the tree - ie in the past. The link between the reptiles and bird lineages was long ago for example, and while there are fossils of such bird-reptile forms long ago, there are no living bird-reptile creatures that have survived to this day. There is no reason they should still exist, and certainly no reason at all that modern reptiles would be turning into mammals, or birds.

No, they shouldn't still be everywhere. If you don't know what evolution is or says, how do you know it's wrong?
