I didn't "try" to make valid points, I did. Namely that your pronouncements that:

- finding a mammal with bird characteristics would disprove evolution

- "no animals have a mixture of mammalian and bird features"

were supreme examples of ignorance.

Thanks for making it easy. All I had to do is THINK.

forgetting even to read the links in your posts by the informed scientists

Who forgot? I told you that, contrary to your assertion, scientists would champion a mammal with bird characteristics as an example of evolution and pencil it in on a mythical chart that they claim is a tree of life ... and lo, they did exactly that.

I do hope you try to handle your humiliation better than others have.

"What small minded creatures indeed to resist one of the most epic visions man as ever had tying together almost every science known to show a total picture , only proves we aren't that very much evolved from our stone age supertitious brothers still . Fortunately we have science now to keep record , improve & pave a way into the future on steadier roads and not tarry here . "

Going to place that sentence in the Platypus files and give it top billing. I wonder where the Platypus is on the Evolutionary tree? Maybe next to the octopus or the pussy willow? Damn! Thinking is so hard and so fraught with danger!
