Fantastic news!

He's going to write a children's book.

Everything you think of as bird like, dinosaurs had: feathers, warm blood, oval eggs in nests, 3 forward toes, hollow bones, etc.

[gregrutz]

@OMER1QAZ You forgot that it took 100 million years for dinosaurs to evolve feathers. Look at the fossil record, it happened.

[gregrutz]

@OMER1QAZ How do you explain that there were small simple animal and the there were more complex animals in the Cambrian and then later there were reptiles, flowers, mammals and birds. That looks like evolution to me.

[OMER1QAZ]

@gregrutz you are implying that when a reptile laid an egg then a complete bird came out of that egg with totally different skin,from cold blooded to warm blooded,unique respiratory system and almost every new organ different from its parents.well that makes no sense to me.

[gregrutz]

@OMER1QAZ ''all the things are so perfect that no intermediate creature is possible''

Yes, everything that ever lived was a complete species. They are all 'intermediate' because they are all extinct and replaced by modern species.

[OMER1QAZ]

@gregrutz cambrian era creatures are plenty in number and are very complex organisms with complex organs like eyes etc and they are comparable to organisms living today in complexity but in pre cambrian era only a few kinds of very simple microbes are present.the question is how few microbes developed into so many different complex creatures in such a short time.this is the reason everyone calls it cambrian explosian.

[gregrutz]

@OMER1QAZ ''where did the cambrian period complex life came from? '' There were no amphibians, reptiles, mammals or birds in the Cambrian Period. They were all small marine creatures that evolved from the creatures that were in the Pre-Cambrian Period. See the fossil record.

@OMER1QAZ

First, abiogenisis is a completely different scientific theory.

Intermediates? All fossils are intermediates. All living things are intermediates. You're an intermediate.

Every person born has hundreds of minor mutations. Chances are, a few of those are beneficial. The evidence is inside you.

We're lucky to have any fossils at all, a tiny gap in the fossil record isn't a weakness of science.

Life changed plenty in 500 million years.

Lack of understanding is not an argument.

[OMER1QAZ]

@ghostexorcist there r million questions.how first cell was created with scientific proof?name any process which increase the information in dna?any credible fossil record of intermediates?name any mutation which is beneficial and promote evolution?from where did the cambrian period complex life came from?define origin of dna?why life has not changed between period of 500 million years?and thousands of more questions.please visit Harun Yahya website.you'll get many questions and you will satisfy

[ghostexorcist]

@OMER1QAZ Can you please provide an example of the types of scientific questions that Yahya asks?
