Well, the problem is, I'm too busy trying to earn a living cutting metal to dimensions within .001" to worry about where birds' wings came from.

But my larger point is that almost no evolution "supporters" have any more knowledge of the subject than I do,, which I documented previously. And yet, they "believe" it, almost entirely because it was something they wanted to believe. But that's called "science," and not faith. And I am Catholic, lol, I don't even have to believe in evolution. Have we ever witnessed a species changing into another because of random genetic mutations?

VERY perceptive of you.

I have a standing challenge to any advocate of evolution to watch "Dragons: a fantasy made real" and tell me what, beside any overt admissions in the faux-documentary, lets you know this is fiction as opposed to the Discovery Channel's normal "science" fare?

The fact is most "scientifically literate" laymen are no more informed than those who listened to Orson Well's "War of the Worlds."

“Have we ever witnessed a species changing into another because of random genetic mutations?”

If you define “species” to include fruit flies that are slightly different than other fruit flies, or birds that are exactly the same except for a slightly different shaped beak, then sure.

If you are talking about one group of animals giving rise to another of a radically different form that are genetically incompatible with their forebears, then no.
