Dino Fossils Generate Overblown Claims (Temple of Darwin caught making stuff up again)
CEH ^ | June 18, 2009

June 18, 2009 — A picture of colorfully-plumed dinosaurs graces an article on National Geographic, but were feathers found with the fossil? No; the article said, “Primitive feathers may have covered the dinosaur’s body, but there is no direct evidence for that, noted [James] Clark, whose work was funded in part by the National Geographic Society” (which also owns National Geographic News). The feathers are apparently completely imaginary. National Geographic has been caught doing this before...

Except that similar fossils have been found with feather impressions, so in this case, it is at least reasonable to assume a likelihood that this animal also had feathers

The term used is "protofeathers". The only fossils which have true feathers are those that are distinctly birds, the oldest such fossil is the archaeopteryx. One can assume anything one wants, but lacking proof makes such an assumption a fairy tale.

“......and why was there not ONE Pterodactyl on Noah’s Ark?”

Ah, but there was! You see, Noah took two pterodactyl eggs, one boy and one girl, onto the ark with him. When they hatched on board, they went into immediate miraculous hibernation, just like the rest of the dinosaur passengers.

You didn’t know that?

Come on now....I've been reading Genesis a bunch lately and Noah could not have "gathered eggs." 6:20 says "Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive."

Unless these eggs flew or walked unto him, they cannot "come unto" him....so they have to be hatched pairs.

Unless.....some Pterodactyls built a nest in the Ark when he was building it.

...unless the two eggs rolled out their nest at the top of a mountain, with a miraculous strengthening of their reptilian shells to prevent breakage, of course, and ended their journey at the ark. I bet that’s it!

Amazing. The bible never mentions triceratops but the CM is loaded with the unmentioned! Just imagine what could have been if Adam had not eaten the apple!

May 31, 2007 | PETERSBURG, Ky -- The Creation Museum swung open its stegosaurus-guarded gates to the public Monday, and I have to say it's out of this world. For those of us raised in natural history Meccas like the American Museum in New York, the Smithsonian in Washington, or the Field in Chicago, the beautifully designed museum induces an eerie vertigo. All the familiar characters are here: T. rex, giant skeletons of triceratops and apatosaurus, a pterosaur spreading its wings above the crowd, live exhibits of birds, amphibians and reptiles, and the dripping, hooting and chirping soundtrack of the primeval forest. There are also a couple of unfamiliar faces, for a natural history museum, in the tan and finely muscled bodies of Adam and Eve.
