I could discuss philanthrophy here, but you'd accuse me of "pretence" again. You seem to think in crude stereotypes ... all conservatives are driven by greed .... and rely on angry personal denunciations when your arguments fail logically. It's a fact that ideology, political or religious, has been a driver of wars for centuries. Certainly, there have been wars over land and resources, but it's false to claim such are the sole source of human conflict.

you were just given a link to a vid that shows small dinosaur fossils with developing feathers, dozens of them in fact showing transitional forms

I really see nothing important there. Certainly there have been feathers* on creatures in ancient times just as there are today. Your transitions and the mechanism driving them are assumed, not well established. I found the reliance on cartoons humorous.

*You also seem to think feathers on ancient creatures were somehow vestigal "developing feathers" which were magically "evolving" into full fledged feathers.
