Well, this is correct until the Jurassic Park movie comes out in a couple of weeks. There's a feathered raptor-ish dinosaur. But in the spirit of movie making, it conveniently swims to add to the drama.

Ain’t no way you’re convincing me Alligators aren’t dinosaurs

I thought they gave feeathers to the raptors in the last couple of movies.

Tuatara says whhaaaaat?
This lizard-like creature found only in New Zealand is the last remaining Rhynchocephalian (beak-headed reptiles). It looks like a lizard, but isn’t. It’s the only member of a suborder of reptiles that has its origin in the Mesozoic era, and was widespread in the Jurassic age.
Technically, it’s not a dinosaur, but this surviving species has stayed relatively unchanged since that time. You’re essentially looking at a creature of the Triassic Age.

I was watching the frigatebird flying around. Those are fricking dinosaurs.

You always know that someone is a complete imbecile when they say "change of kind". Do you even realize that the example you ask for is the exact opposite of what evolution is?
Exact opposite???
Evolution states we all evolved from fish. So fish evolved into man, cats, dogs, monkeys, reptiles, etc…. If change of kind is the opposite of evolution then the only kind on earth should be fish because evolution never occurred. Do you even know what evolution claims?
quote:
Yep. Evolution is tested and observed an unfathomable number of times each day.
Then give me one example of a change of kind with observable evidence.
Funny how your entire fake belief system crumbles with one question and evolution claims it has happened thousands of time. But….you can’t prove it….blind faith at it is finest.
One day you will think for yourself and realize your fairy tale of evolution is fake.

Problem with that wild theory is that’s NOT science.
Scientific method: observable and repeatable. That crazy theory fails both of these with flying colors but passes the test for those with great imagination.
Even the fossil records reject evolution. Fossil records show an explosion of animals appearing out of no where and they remain the same for millions of years with only adaptation changes and no changes of kind.
Darwin himself has admitted the lack of evidence in the fossil record is the biggest objection to evolution.
You can place all of the evidence they have for evolution in one shoe box. But keep looking for that missing link pal.
Fish become philosophers!!!!
But we can’t prove it. Crazy talk for the uneducated.

Wow, OLD Answers in Genesis talking points, including that discredited, out-of-context use of that Darwin quote...
What is this, 2004?!
Edit: And AiG wasn’t even the worst example out there. They even updated their talking points at one point and advised followers not to use the older talking points that had already been widely discredited. Marginally impressive that they self-corrected.
There’s still really dim-witted folks out there that throw out the “it’s only a theory” line.

I side on evolutionary theory.
But i dont think you understand what theory means.
Yes. There are flaws with darwin. But there were flaws with copernicus, galileo, newton, and einstein. Science finds a way to build or alter past theories. I notice those challenging darwin arent positing alternative theories to man's origins. I wonder why? Not really.

we humans would never have evolved if this extinction of dinosaurs has not happened.
Why not?
We evolved alongside some other pretty gnarly predators and figured out how to hunt and kill beasts the size of wooly mammoths. The large majority of the super-sized dinosaurs were vegetarians, so we would really only have to look out for things like raptors and T-Rex and a few others.

It’s a rhetorical question. I already know that in the 1880s when Darwin died, not a heckuva a lot of fossil evidence had been uncovered. But it’s not like people stopped looking and all we have is what Darwin had. We have continued to fill in the transitionary gaps with more and more fossil evidence.
But fossil evidence isn’t even the only evidence we have these days. We have molecular evidence that indicates exactly what one would expect from the theory. For example, that humans are more closely related to primates than to any other animal group.
As far as the Cambrian Explosion, evolutionary theorists haven’t hid it as a secret, and they have an explanation for it with evidence to back it up.
