What if the answer is “neither,” since evolution is bunkum?

"Raptors look quite a bit like dinosaurs"
Think of the works of an artist. It is common for works of the same artist to look alike.
It is not that dinos and birds have a common ancestor, but that they have a common designer. That is why they resemble each other.
For example: These pots and pans look alike not because they were produced in a chronological sequence, but because they have the same designer.

What you are reading here is nothing more than an arcane debate between traditional taxonomists and cladistic taxonomists. The simple resolution lays in the observation that birds are dinosaurs in the same sense that marsupials are mammals.
Under a cladistic taxonomy, the Classes of Aves and Reptilia get rearranged. The dinosaurs are removed from the reptiles and classed together with the birds in a new tetrapod Class called Dinosauria.
Problem solved.
