Well, the scientists who still believe in evolution.
You mean just about all of them producing a solid consensus.

Raises New Doubts About Dinosaur-bird Links
ScienceDaily (June 9, 2009) — Researchers at Oregon State University have made a fundamental new discovery about how birds breathe and have a lung capacity that allows for flight – and the finding means it's unlikely that birds descended from any known theropod dinosaurs.

Hey MT!
Appreciate the knowledge friend...
And you last post a few pages back...whew! Please give me some time to review....
Hey is there a site that lays out some of the concepts you discuss...Geometry huh? I love that class back in the day...for some reason I was good at it, it was kinda intuative for me then...
OT
51. His disciple said to Him,
“When will the repose of the dead come about,
and when will the New World come?”
He said to them,
“What you look forward to
has already come,
but you do Not recognise it.”
113. His disciples said to Him,
“When will The Kingdom come?”
Jesus said,
“It will not come by waiting for it.
It will not be a matter of saying
“Here it is” or “There it is”
Rather, The Kingdom of The Father
is spread out upon the earth,
and men Do Not See it.”
If birds didn't descend from dinosaurs, where did they come from? The most likely alternative is that the last common ancestor of birds and dinosaurs was one of the prehistoric reptiles of the Triassic period, most likely a crocodilian or perhaps even a very early dinosaur, recently split off from its archosaur ancestors

Thank you for your response.
I know, I often come across as perhaps a little arrogant, or a know it all,

Great point there Totakeke,
What brings you to OT's thread?
Glad you did...

W, Bob Strauss asks a great question....OT thinks he's got it right...other than the timing?

Sounds reasonable to me. It's plainly obvious that they are related to the Dinosaurs, one only needs look at the feet of a chicken and see the similarity to the feet of Rex from Jurassic Park, among countless other things. And his timing is fine - that amount of evolution is not possible in 6000 years.
