Another Chinese “fossil”?

How long before this is exposed as yet another hoax?

Exactly right. LOL. Now why can’t you be a good atheist, confess God is dead and let us abort babies and enslave people? Come eat the apple of knowledge... you can be like God.

Now why can’t you be a good atheist...

You do realize that many Christians believe in some sort of evolution, be it old earth creation, ID, or TE.. even the Catholic church recognizes Theistic Evolution.

feathers first, then lighter bone structures, and a modified respiratory system for longer, higher altitude flight.

"You do realize that many (nominal) Christians believe in some sort of evolution...

It is impossible to believe the words of Christ, and also believe evolution. One or the other has to be a superficial belief.

oh i see it now!!! and those fingers grew into 2, inches, and then 4 inches then 20 feet... then sprouted feathers and then they could fly!

makes perfect sense... where are THOSE fossils now?

Wouldn’t an ‘evolving’ wing be a detriment to you health? until it became an ACTUAL wing?

Ask the emu, ostrich, or kiwi.
(and a few hundred various extinct ones from 1 to 35 MYA)

Cool!!!! Anyone looking at those fossils could tell that the feathers they may have had, but were not found, were bright blue and yellow!

And they were found just at the right time, too.

I had a high school teacher who used to tell the class, “you folks have a retention span of zilch. “ He must have been talking about you. One week:http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2270471/posts and http://www.bio-medicine.org/biology-news-1/Discovery-raises-new-doubts-about-dinosaur-bird-links-8763-1/ . Now as a way of eating crow, just have that bird you flipped in the title removed by the moderator.
