This is getting pathetic. Every degree of visual sensor and nervous system are present in existing species today.

Yeah, but they exist in organisms which are entirely integrated and functional. I'm looking for a lion with a half-formed wing. That type of thing.

You're an example what happens when someone gets all his science from pamphlets.

Ouch. That hurts.

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

Or would you like a detailed treatment of eye evolution?

How Could An Eye Evolve?.

The problem with your lion-wing is it's a standard "When have you ever seen a snake turn into a bird?" strawman attacking something which no scientist would propose as the way evolution works.

Basically, all of your arguments reflect a keen study of the creationist pamphlets of the late 1970s. There's some slop in the dating but I'd say it's no later.
