Not to mention.....
Examination of the fossils revealed air-filled sacs in the bones, a feature that links the dinosaurs with the evolution of birds much later.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

So it looks like proper dinos, dino-birds, and mammals all developed around the same period: approx. 220 to 250 mio BP.

What was so special about that period that it gave rise to the emergence of these three major fauna classes?
