That's just bogus, of course. Would you settle for a bird with a half-wing, half raptorian claw?

No. This does nothing more to prove the theory of evolution than does an archaeopteryx or a platypus. Just like the platypus (kiwi, penguin, flying squirrel, etc.), this creature seems to be integrated and fully functional.

I'm not sure what this "integrated and fully functional" stuff is all about. Every critter that ever existed is going to be "integrated and fully functional" or it will not survive to propogate. There will be minor modifications in just about every organism, but nothing major is going to crop up overnight. On a geological timescale it may appear to happen quickly, but it is still a series of small mutations over many, many generations. Each of the small mutations aids the critter in some extra way that allows it to pass its genes on to the next generation.

Science is not a lawyerly twising game. No wonder you're a fan of Phil Johnson.

It occurs to me that any creature fit enough to survive you'd call "integrated and fully functional."

Darwinism predicts nothing else. At least, not for long.
