Feduccia is a crackpot? He literally wrote the book on avian evolution.

He may have written A book on it. There figure to be better ones.

I know you said you were abed, but for tomorrow...

There are those who will follow the data where it leads. They are called scientists.

There are those who will follow the Bible/CS/ID where it dictates. They are not called scientists. In fact, they do their best to destroy science, the scientific method, and any scientist who disagree with their faith-based positions.

It is becoming increasingly useless on these threads to conduct meaningful discussions between the two opposites. There are different world views and different languages being used. It only leads to frustration.

Some of those who are in-between may be educated by the exchange, and that's a good thing, but I have given up trying to convince the young-earth and similar proponents of anything. Life is too short to deal with that level of obfuscation. Live and let live.

But these folks trash the scientific method, scientists, and the entire data-driven, logical, scientific world at their peril. What do they think keeps us ahead of the game in Iraq and Afghanistan? And in the next hot spot?

Trash science like this and you may well be toe-to-toe with scimitars. Kept up on your fencing lessons?
